CrazyOne Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Not sure how to report the bonus money in bidding price, fix if necessary. The win is at $42+$10 bonus. Maybe should be reported as $52 for continuity? Hm.Taking a trip up to New England again and figured I'd take advantage of the Cyber Monday $10 bonus deal. Yeah, would be better on a 5-night hotel stay somewhere, but I just don't have one in mind and can't plan one that quickly. ;-)I figured I would get this same BW as the last trip, and indeed that is what happened. My perhaps slightly off bid progression means I saved a net of only $5 over the last win, but that's still good.Bidding went like this:$25+10 for Wilkes Barre, got nothing$30+10 added Frackville, nothing$35+10 adding Hazelton, nothing$42+10 adding White Haven, got a credit card rejection (typo, perhaps), used a card I've used on PL before and got win. I upped it $7 here because the $10 bonus is only good for one day and figured I'd still be saving a net of $5 over last time.I don't know if Priceline rejiggers the pricing to account for some of the bonus $$, but again I did save $5 over my previous bid here so at least that's something. It's possible I overbid by as much as $5-6 though.Thanks as always for this resource. After I claimed my bonus I used your PRICELINE link in a new browser so hopefully that credits you.
