amazing, I'm picking the same area the same dates! I hope I got the same hotel as well :)

nah you didnt overbid, i got the same hotel today for 9/14-9/16 and I incremented from $120 and finally got accepted at $130

I started bidding from 60 all the way to $79 ($71+ reward bucks) for a final win. First time staying at this hotel, was hoping for rosen shingle creek. oh well. I never know mid Feb is such a crazy week, I've never paid more than $70 a night for a 4* in Orlando, even during Christmas 2012 week! Not to mention Car rental is INSANE, even more than hotel at the moment.

I've successfully bid low prices on hotels through priceline few times before, but bidding on car rentals throws me off. I'm trying to rent a minivan for 5 days in fort lauderdale, fl. from 2/15-2/19. the winning bid history page showed $32 per day win just 2 days ago. I tried that and didnt work, i went all the way up to 45 and still no go. The page suggested $126 for a higher chance of winning. Anyone got any tips on winning on prices on car rental? like wait closer towards the dates, avoid certain weekdays ..etc?

If you want something nice, you would really want to look at 4 stars and higher. Check HOTWIRE first to get an idea on how much the price is around the area then try to bid lower through PRICELINE.

Started at 60 with $1 increment. Yesterday when I tried this I went all the way to $75 and still couldn't win any 4 stars. Guess trying the day before paid off for me this time. Always used the PRICELINE link on top of the forum.

i picked 4 stars Orlando (SeaWorld - International Drive - Convention Center) and Orlando (Universal Orlando Resort Area - International Drive North) put in $50 and it was accepted now it makes me wonder if i can get it at $45 or even $40! lol :)
