coharahawk Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Decided to take a weekend trip to Chicago after Thanksgiving. I've been researching prices for the past few days, noticing that 11/26 was not being heavily discounted for some reason based on Hotwire and prior wins. I was a little pessimistic about the prices, but I did notice that Hotwire rates were slightly lower today and decided to give it shot.Bidding progression3.5 star loop $603.5 star loop + NMA $65 (re-open browser)3.5 star NMA + MDWN $683.5 star loop + NMA + MDWN $70 (re-open browser)3.5 star loop + NMA + Skokie $75 (won)Sax Hotel A Thompson Hotel333 North Dearborn StreetChicago, IL 60610312-245-0333Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $75.00 (USD)Number of Rooms: 1Number of Guests Per Room: 2Number of Nights: 2Room Subtotal: $150.00 (USD)Taxes and Fees: $31.54 (USD)Total Room Cost: $181.54 (USD)Especially given my low expectations for a deal on this date, I'm pretty happy with this win.
