notatraveler Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Posted March 11, 2012 I would like to stay under $140 and actually a 3* would work also.
thereuare Posted March 11, 2012 Report Posted March 11, 2012 Did you want to bid up to your $140 limit for a 3.5* property first, then if rejected start over and try for a 3*... OR is your goal the least expensive 3* or better for this trip?... and please click each of these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links before replying.2x Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases

notatraveler Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Posted March 16, 2012 How high do you think I have to go for these dates...$140 or so??
thereuare Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 $140 may be enough but i wouldn't be surprised if it took even a bit more than that.With time on your side i would begin with the following:At the 3* level you have ONE re-bid zones... at the 3.5* level you have SIX re-bid zones.Select 3* Fishermans Wharf...Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $110, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Fishermans Wharf and re-bid zone (and re-bid zone that you did not use in your 3* bidding above)...Bid $112, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $114, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $116, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $118, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120This gives you a chance to win the lowest priced 3* first, but if that is rejected try for a higher rated hotel in the same day for just $10 more. If the above is rejected wait 24 hours re-try:Select 3* Fishermans Wharf...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Fishermans Wharf and re-bid zone (and re-bid zone that you did not use in your 3* bidding above)...Bid $122, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $124, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $126, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $128, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130If the above is rejected wait 24 hours re-try:Select 3* Fishermans Wharf...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Fishermans Wharf and re-bid zone (and re-bid zone that you did not use in your 3* bidding above)...Bid $132, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $134, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $136, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $138, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $140If rejected wait 24 hours and re-try:Select 3* Fishermans Wharf...Bid $135, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $140Any questions feel free to ask.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.

notatraveler Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Posted March 17, 2012 If I add re-bid zones and I still going to get a hotel in Fishermans Wharf. That is the only area we want to stay in. Thank you.
