Priceline Hotel: Tried the trix! now what? New Orleans 1 night 5/8/12, French Quarter or Riverside Convention center area

[NOLA_blue]

Tried all the strategies posted and no luck on PL. 4* shows last successful bid was $130 - I went through all the techniques and it turned me down even up to $152.

I'm looking to spend $180+/- including fees. would prefer a 3.5* or 4*

LMT had a 5* available for $154, but only on 5/9/12 and I need 5/8/12 - where they're offering a 4* for $191

Any help would sure be great.

PS. Thanks Mod for the tips - I was able to find dead zones and bid up in increments of $2 from $126 up to $152 in 1 session - UNFORTUNATELY still don't have a room but any help would be great!!! Thanks.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

We're glad to hear you're finding the site useful.

As you can see rates are high for these. I did find one convention taking place during this period and there may be other event(s) taking place throughout the city as well.

From your post it appears that you haven't yet included in the Downtown zone in your bidding... is there a reason or particular hotel you're trying to avoid? Given the high prices I'm not sure if it will help, but it certainly couldn't hurt, and it will also give you more bidding combinations to use in the future.

Let us know if you're also interested in the Downtown zone as well as your maximum bid price (before taxes and fees) and we'll take a closer look at this nite.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
