MIChessGuy Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I was on fire to win the Holiday Inn Maingate East, but worried about possibly getting the Radisson Resort Celebration and its $12.50 per night resort fee Here's the play by play:Bid $29 + $5 Bonus Cash for total bid of $34/night -- rejected. Priceline suggests increasing my bid by $11 to get an immediate rebid without additional changes. Fat chance!I note that Winter Park has no lodgings at or above the 3* level. So I add that zone and boost my bid to $31 + $5 Bonus Cash -- accepted! And I got the exact hotel I had been shooting for!! B) The instructions given here for getting an immediate rebid helped me a lot. Bonus Cash: $5.00Offer Price: $31.00Rooms: 1Nights: 5Room Subtotal: $155.00Taxes & Fees: $32.95Total Charged: $187.95Final note: I think this Holiday Inn has a $4.95 resort fee, but as hotel fees go, that's not too bad. Also they get a pretty good quality rating in the 2012 Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World. Link to comment

MIChessGuy Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Oh sorry, I thought I had done just that. I clicked on the BB's PRICELINE link while perusing the list of Florida hotels, accessed my Bonus Cash, then went from there. I'll make sure to mention that I did use the board's PRICELINE link when posting my next win. Link to comment
