Welcome to BetterBidding!

If you haven't yet, please start by reading your messages.

If you enter 'Toronto, Canada' into the search box on the top right corner of this page (or the BiddingHelper.com text box in the middle of the page) you'll see that Toronto has TWO 'downtown' zones... Downtown North and Downtown South. Are both of these acceptable or just one of them?

What is your maximum bid for a 4* hotel for this stay?

Let us know the above and we'll advise accordingly.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

You do not know which hotel you will get - that is one of the trade-offs of using the discount services. If you bid for a 4* in the Toronto Downtown South area (for example), you have to be willing to accept ANY 4* in that zone. Is that acceptable? What would be your desired budget per night?

Are you willing to pay more for a 4* vs. a 3.5* vs. a 3* OR is your goal the least expensive 3* or better for this trip?

3.5 star medium price is $184

What is your maximum bid for this trip?

Are you ready to begin bidding and commit to a non-refundable purchase?
