MrCoffee Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Offer Price: $440.00Taxes & Fees: $88.14Total: $528.14About half off the best published rate for the same nights.Details of bid: Got full stay from three separate bids. First was for 6/12 - 6/14. Seemed like a nice property at a great rate, so I tried and got the "Extend your stay" bid for 6/11 - 6/12, followed by another standalone bid for the last night. Originally tried 5* in Beverly Hills - West Hollywood up to $140 (unlikely, I know). Then tried various bids at 4* in Beverly Hills/West Hollywood and Brentwood/Westwood starting at $70 with $10 increments to $110.I almost made a major careless mistake. When starting a new round of bidding, I forgot to select the date. It was only after my 3rd rejection that I realized I was bidding for a hotel for the same night. For once I was very glad that by bids were rejected. Hopefully this will remind me to always pay attention when bidding.Used the BetterBidding PRICELINE link.Admin: The dates in the title should be for 2011 (If I can change that, I'm not seeing where). I'm really not doing well with dates this week. Thanks.
