cruwudu Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 First I was given a page saying that Name Your Own Price was not available for those days. Then I closed the tab and used the PRICELINE link again and searched again, maybe changing my times by 30 minutes and it worked.* $20 bid for Compact. Rejected.* $18 bid for Economy. Rejected.* $21 bid for Mid-size. Rejected. (Thought it was worth a try, why not?)I'll try again tomorrow. HOTWIRE has deals for $25/day (including tax it appears) for a total of $112. I suppose I'll increase by $1 increments until I hit whatever HOTWIRE has for that day and run with that.

cruwudu Posted October 13, 2010 Author Report Posted October 13, 2010 Additional bids.* $25 for compact. Rejected.* $22 for economy. Rejected.Ended up booking an economy for $25/day on HOTWIRE. I have some driving to do so I wouldn't mind having a car that will get the best gas mileage. Also they seem to upgrade me pretty often anyway. HOTWIRE 'retail' bookings also allows you to cancel anytime so I may continue trying to book on PRICELINE.
