doublehelix Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Back in April I bid these dates at $12 for a standard, then $14 for a full-size, and $19 for a premium. All were rejected at the time. But now that my dates have drawn closer I bid again a few dollars higher (guided by recent wins posted in this forum) and was accepted on the first try:Your Offer Price: $15.00 (per day)Total Rental Days: 3 daysSubtotal: $45.00Taxes and Fees: $26.83Total Charges: $71.83Lowest Published Price: $134.17 (USD)Total Savings:* $62.34 (USD) (You saved 46%)Started at the PRICELINE link on this board, of course.The thank-you page on Priceline's site offered me an upgrade to a Full Size car for $2/day additional, but I didn't take them up on it. I found it interesting that the offer did not appear in the confirmation email; a time-sensitive "upgrade" I guess. Or maybe an attempt to get impulse spenders to spend.Thanks Betterbidding,~Jen
