jeremyw Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Starting from the BB PRICELINE link, and with my list of re-bid zones in hand, I attempted to get a downtown Minneapolis hotel for the same date a few days ago. Considering that there were only a few hotels in the forum list at the 3* and 3.5* levels (there are several more at 4*), and that they all looked acceptable, I placed bids at 3* from the start. On the 14th I bid to $43 and $44 and was offered a free re-bid at $58, at which point I was out of zones (I started my bidding pretty low).Trying again today, for tonight, bids between $39 and $43 were getting me free re-bid offers at $58. Instead, I placed a $45 bid and won a room at the 4* Westin. This is a very nice hotel in a beautiful old building -- I've stayed here before; I am quite satisfied.Total cost, with taxes and fees: $59.24. Link to comment
