BilliamE Posted July 18, 2007 Report Posted July 18, 2007 Noticed Hotwire had a 3.5* in Santa Monica for $175 (believed to be the Sheraton Delfina according to a Hotwire posting).Went to Priceline (through Savingsbarn) and chose to bid at 2.5* because that would allow for 3 rebids. Bid $130 (1 night, 7/20-7/21) and was accepted and upgraded to 3*, just what I was hoping. If I knew it'd be that easy I would have started lower, but was willing to pay up to $175, so no loss there.
thereuare Posted July 18, 2007 Report Posted July 18, 2007 Congratulations on your win!Looks like some HUGE savings on this one! Thank you for sharing it with the board and for starting your bids with the PRICELINE links at SavingsBarn.comIf you wanted you could have bid for a 3* hotel first, then if rejected, close your browser and re-access priceline however you did previously... then started your search for a 2.5*. By closing your browser and re-accessing priceline, it enables you to "clear" the checkmarked zones that you have already selected, as well as not risk actually receiving a 2.5* hotel on your first bid(s). Hopefully this makes sense, but if not feel free to ask any questions that you may have.Thanks again... have a great stay. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
