thereuare Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 At the 3* level you have two re-bid zones... none at the 2.5* level. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 3* Tigard...Bid $37, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $39, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 3* Tigard and re-bid zone2...Bid $42, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $45.If the above is rejected i'd try:Select 2.5* Tigard...Bid $39.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

drco Posted June 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Bid successfully! Got the Hilton Garden Inn (Tigard) for $39.Tried bidding for the 3* and went up to $43 but no go.Then tried 2.5* at $39 and was accepted.Based on the review, seems to be a pretty good hotel. And based on Hilton's website, lowest rate is $100, so this is a big savings!Thanks thereuare! Went to the savingsbarn link first to access PL website. :) Link to comment
