thereuare Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 Welcome to BetterBidding!It seems like you're doing it right, but rates are date specific and the 'very cheap' rates are not available all the time.What is your maximum bid for this stay? Is SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID an option? Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
stokscr Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Posted June 29, 2006 Maximum is $100. Splitting is not an option right now, does it increase the chances if I bid Saturday and Sunday together and monday night at higher price.Thank you.
thereuare Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 Does it increase the chances if I bid Saturday and Sunday together and monday night at higher price.As per the split bid link above, it can if there is a price change over your stay.Based upon current rates, i'm doubtful you'll find success for this complete stay for $100 or less, but you can try again after 24 hours from your last failed bid, increasing your last bid by $5. (so i'd try $85 and then $100)Keep us updated. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
stokscr Posted July 6, 2006 Author Report Posted July 6, 2006 Thank you Admins, today I got Double Tree suites in Jersey City for $80 on the first try. :) Now I have to call the hotel and hope to get double beds as we are three adults.I used the link on Savingsbarn.com for this reservation.
thereuare Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 Congratulations on your win!If i remember correctly, it appears that rates have come down a little since your previous attempts.Thank you for sharing your results with the board and starting your bids with the links at SavingsBarn.comEnjoy your stay.
