sdmomof3 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 Used the site's PRICELINE link and began bidding at $75 using rebid zones. Was trying for a 5* in either Strip North or Strip South. When my offer got to about $90 or $95, Priceline said that for a bid of $112, they would accept my offer. Still had re-bid zones left, so I declined this and finally hit at $100. Prior to checking in, I called the hotel and requested a view room on a high floor with 2 queen beds. The lady told me it would be a $60 upgrade. Decided I would prefer to try my luck with the $20 trick, which worked like a charm. Slipped my $20 bill along with my credit card and i.d. at check-in and got a suite on the 36th floor looking directly down at Treasure Island (my kids LOVED watching the pirate show/fireworks, etc. from our window). The hotel was AMAZING - remote control curtains, 3 flat screen TV's, impeccable luxury. We will be back! :)
