Last try was for $75. for 3* and refused at 2:00p.m. 10/22/10. I ran out of time to keep bid. I'll try to start earlier next time. Ended up just spending the evening and driving home. 1.5 hr. each way. Thanks to adm. and BobC for your help and I'll use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links in the future. This board is very helpful. Am I correct that click threw(?) rates helps even if not successful? Jim
