Lowballing but I figured what the heck, I'll be back tomorrow to up it.

3* @ $48, rejected.

2.5* added, kept the $48, rejected.

No other tries since I'm trying to avoid 2* and there's no geography stuff to toggle.

Of course, I used the PRICELINE link on the page up top.

I'll try again tomorrow with some higher # and report back.

Cheers y'all.

FYI Priceline often does that increasing-counter-offer thing. Sometimes it scares a bidder into thinking the prices are going up and they bite. You are doing well to just stay with your strategy.

Priceline doesn't tend to give counter-offers on a follow-up bid in the same session, like your 2 1/2* $54. You might be closer than you realize with that one.

Bids often work at the 1/2-way point of a counter-offer, or about $60 for the 3*. And maybe a little less for the 2 1/2*.

However, you don't have a lot of time left. Maybe you want to increase your bids by $2 or even $3 at a time? Sometimes people have to get a few $$ over the 1/2-way point to win.

Best of luck with your next round of bidding! Thanks for keeping us updated. Does Travelocity's "Top Secret" section have anything for the area on these dates?

Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE or Travelocity links to start your purchases and searches.

Well, I tried for 3* at $55 and got denied with a $70 counteroffer yesterday. No takers.

Tried $56 for 3* today ($70 with taxes/fees) and got denied. No counteroffer.

So I went for the Travelocity link and hit up the Top Secret hotels. There was a 3* on there for $62, which was less after taxes/fees ($69).

Booked it! Turns out to be the Phoenix Inn.

Good stuff, thanks for the assistance.
