lindabobhat Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I was tempted to book what I knew was the Hyatt Lodge Oakbrook on Hotwire for $64 but I'm currently boycotting them. Opted to go with Priceline instead. Started at $33; got counteroffer for $9. Closed my browser. Added Elmhurst as a free rebid and went to $36. Got declined again and added Arl. Hts. North as abother free rebid and upped to $39. Offer accepted. (I think I'm getting the hang of this!) I must admit that this is a little bit further west of Oak Brook than I would have liked, but the fact that it's a suite more than makes up for it. Saving $25 over what I would have paid on Hotwire for something comparable - PRICELESS! (Can you tell I'm miffed at Hotwire right now?) Your Offer Price: $39.00 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 1 Subtotal: $39.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $11.84 Total Charges: $50.84 Doubletree Guest Suites & Conference Center2111 Butterfield Road Downers Grove, Illinois 60515 Link to comment

lindabobhat Posted August 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Might want to change the price in the title - my final bid was $39. And how pathetic is it that I can't even spell "OOPS" without a typo? Link to comment
