MDoriole Posted August 3, 2010 Report Posted August 3, 2010 My first bid was accepted today by Priceline. I entered $45 for a 4star hotel in the "Downtown" area of St. Louis and I received the Hyatt @ the Arch. The bid was $45 and with tax, the total is $60.I actually started the bid with 1 night, and then added the 2nd night after my offer was accepted. I am planning to stay Sept. 11-14th, but right now my hotel is only booked through the 13th. I didn't realize that Priceline only lets you extend your winning bid by the amount of nights that you originally request. For example, I originally just bid for 1 night (Sept. 11), and I won. Then I requested to extend the stay, but the max. I can extend it by, is 1 night. Bummer! I will just have to try and bid again for the last night.I did use this websites PRICELINE link as well. Thanks to everyone else for all the info and tips on bidding, definitely a helpful website! :)
