sarahd22 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I'm relatively new to PRICELINE. Can anyone help me out with Bidding strategy? I'm looking for a 4 star hotel downtown for a maximum of $80 per night, but would prefer to be around $70. Any suggestions?Thank you!

sarahd22 Posted July 6, 2010 Author Report Posted July 6, 2010 Thanks for all your help! I struck out on my first attempt after getting up to $85 per night. Tried again today started at $56 per night and my bid was accepted at $76 for Hotel Monaco! My total cost after taxes was: $267.60 I'm am excited about this property and think it is a great deal! Thanks again
