Thereuare will be along shortly to give you a strategy, I'm sure.

What are the rates for that date at the hotels most likely to appear on PL?

4* means that you'll have 3 free rebids.

Just a note, if you have a car then parking will be an extra $9-11 per day.

Yah OK, $60 does sound too low for a 4*. I would go as high as $75 (thats $88 in Cdn funds). I am from Victoria BC. Cheers on your thanksgiving ! Ours was last month. :)

At the 4* level you have 3 re-bid zones availabe (read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained if you are not familiar with re-bidding... feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your zones if you're unsure)

Select 4* Long Beach...

Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone1...

Bid $60, if rejected add re-bid zone2...

Bid $65, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.

Select 4* Long Beach and re-bid zone3...

Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone1...

Bid $73, if rejected add re-bid zone2...

Bid $75.

Any questions feel free to ask.

Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

Thank you "Thereuare". I followed your directions through savingsbarn.com/Priceline

I was told there was nothing for the first 3 bids you mentioned. then when I brought up the browser again to start the second half of your instructions, I was told "Sorry, this is a duplicate bid"

So, I guesse I wait 72 hours now eh?

OH, I get it now, 4* Long Beach plus zone 3, add new bid, then add zone 1 etc..

however, I was rejected on each, right up to a bid of $75. I need to wait 72 Hrs now and try again with higher bid or lower my star rating. I am starting to understand now after reading this forum for 3 days.

I still do not understand how to bid on Hotwire :)
