EMIndy Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 As always, I started out my search using the HOTWIRE and PRICELINE QuickQuote widgets at the top of the page.Searched Tampa and St. Pete/Clearwater for a 3* or higher using Hotwire first. Once I was familiar with what was available (and pretty certain I wanted Hyatt Place Tampa Airport/Westshore), I headed over to Priceline to try to get it cheaper. Hotwire was $81 plus higher fees.Started my bid at $60 then $65 after adding Tampa South (no 3*). Waited 24 hrs then used the same zone strategy with $68 and $70. Added Busch Gardens (only 3* there is also a Hyatt Place) and went up to $72, which was accepted.Thanks again, BetterBidding for helping me save a significant amount of money. Priceline even offered me a Full-size SUV at PIE for $18/day, but I waited too long to jump on it. Link to comment
