Galadriel Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 Hi, This is my first post to this site. My husband and I are going to Vegas for the NAB convention. The hotels are very expensive during this week. I bid on Priceline starting at $60 going up in $10 increments to $100 for a 4* hotel, unsucessfully. I was doing some research and thinking of bidding for The Orleans, West of the Strip, but was a little concerned I might end up with another hotel. Then I found your wonderful Website and the DTD posts. Hotwire had a $196 4* Downtown, Orbitz had the Golden Nugget for $113. I've applied for the DTD from Hotwire and will let you know the results. Hopefully I will be getting $166 back. Wish me luck as my husband will be very unhappy if we are paying $196 per night for a hotel in Vegas.Anything else you want to know? Link to comment
