1f9mom Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 Going to Orlando Febr 9-16:I have a few weeks...so decided to low-ball (like gkp had & won!)...& followed his $10 for midsize SUV...but no luck here, not accepted! SO I then rebid with the bid I won 1 year ago for for same place/same car...$15 for full size, which was ALSO rejected! :(Will try again tomorrow!As always...used the PRICELINE link to begin my bidding! :)
thereuare Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 At the moment i'm guessing a fullsize will likely cost in the low $20's and an SUV in the mid/high-$20's.Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.Keep us updated on your progress.
