thereuare Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Welcome to BetterBidding!Are you Platinum with Marriott and eligible for the Buy One Get One offer? Do they allow you to book multiple rooms (as many reward stays are limited to one room and must be in the name of the Platinum member)What is your budget for this stay?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

howdy_tx Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I am actually Platinum with Marriott and is eligible for the B1G1 offer. however, that is only for weekend. 1 weekend 1 free. so, only 2 out of the 6 nights. & yes, coupon does say can give to friends. I believe the calculation for Austin-South-Airport Marriott is about $50 per night before tax. However, the rest of the week will be more than $100.budget? I was hoping to keep in the $50 range before tax per night. Link to comment

howdy_tx Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 is there a reason to split the bid? Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 You could purchase the deal directly thru Marriott for 4/29-5/1... then PRICELINE or HOTWIRE a hotel for the remainder of your trip (understanding that you would likely need to change hotels.. and the midweek nites may very cost you more than $50/nite)Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

thereuare Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 I'm not sure what you're asking above... do you mean the average rate at the Marriott for the balance of your stay? If so, you can check rates HERE.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
