goodricb Posted May 18, 2006 Report Posted May 18, 2006 I am seeking 2 possibly 3 rooms at a 3 star hotel in the Indianapolis North - Fishers section of Indianapolis for 2 nights, Friday, June 16- Sunday, June 18.Here is my plan bidding plan. I dont have a pricing plan yet though. Some of the winning bids for 3*'s in the $40-$45 range would be great. My back up plan is the wedding rate of $99 at the Marriott North, or a Fed Gov rate of $84 at Courtyard Carmel, Residence Inn, Sheraton, Embassy Suites, or Hilton North. 3* Indianapolis North - Fishers3* Indianapolis North - Fishers, Northwest3* Indianapolis North - Fishers, South3* Indianapolis North - Fishers, Speedway3* Indianapolis North - Fishers, Nortwest, South3* Indianapolis North - Fishers, Northwest, Speedway3* Indianapolis North - Fishers, South, Speedway3* Indianapolis North - Fishers, Northwest, South, SpeedwayAny help with a pricing plan would be great. I was thinking that since I have 8 bids and 4+ weeks I would start at $36 and work my way up adding $2.
goodricb Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Posted May 18, 2006 Ok - so I was a little bored at work and I tried all 8 bids starting at $36 for each of the 3 rooms at one time and going up by $1 each time with $43 as my highest bid. They were all rejected but I received counter offers of one-time re-raise opportunities suggesting that I add $12 to each of the $41, $42 and $43 bids. I know I am pretty close. I will try again on Monday, starting with $44 unless anyone has any better ideas.Thanks.
goodricb Posted May 22, 2006 Author Report Posted May 22, 2006 I tried again using linking through savingsbarn.com and got lucky at $46/night. I continued to get re-bid offers at $44/night.
