bigdusf Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I'm looking for a 3.5* in Downtown Madison from 8/13-8/15/10.I've bid 7 times so far from yesterday and tonight. Started at $47 and last bid was up to $85. All have been rejected. Any help with bidding would help. Thanks! Link to comment

bigdusf Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I would prefer to stay under $100 a night, but the downtown location is the most important thing so if I have to go above $100 I'll do it.I'll definitely use the link. Thanks. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Prices are higher than the norm for these dates - HOTWIRE does have a 3.5* for $122 and a 3* for $119, so hopefully a winning bid on PRICELINE for a 3.5* will be somewhere in the $95-105 range.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

bigdusf Posted June 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Used all of my rebids up to $106 and still no luck. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I'm guessing that the 3.5* HOTWIRE hotel for $115 is the Sheraton... would this be an acceptable property?Would you consider increasing your PRICELINE bid up to the $115 level?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
