Double the difference - Hotwire

[andyrewne]

I don't know if this will help anybody - but I already made reservations a month ago on Priceline. So I'm stuck w/ my reservation. But, for some crazy reason, I keep rechecking to see if I got the "best deal". We'll I didn't - and I think If you are in vegas this can let you stay at the Rio in Vegas for $40/night.

Here's how it works:

HOTDEAL rate at Rio is actually $59/night (but don't look straight at hot Rates page, try to book the reservation - the hot Rates page never changes. this link should get you close.

harrahs.com/MakeReservation

insert dates for Aug 1 - Aug 5

Then try to book on Hotwire. Betterbidding says the the Rio is the only 4* West of Strip. If that is wrong, this whole tip is useless! :)

The hotwire rate is $68/night. So, if my math is right:

$68 - $59 = $9 x 2 (double difference)

$9 x 2 (double difference) = $18/night savings from Hotwire Rate

So, $68 - $18 = $50/night.

Again, I don't know if this will help anyone, but I would feel good if at least somebody could beat the man. :)
