blkjck1 Posted January 12, 2008 Report Posted January 12, 2008 Originally tried for a room going to the 4th, but figured the first day of the work week was messing things up after bidding from $55-80 and using all rebid zones. Restarted the bidding at $66, and dropping a day at the end. Used rebid zones at $69, 72, and then success!Marriott Irvine John Wayne Airport 4-starCosta Mesa - Irvine18000 Von Karman AvenueIrvine, California 92612949-553-0100Check-In Date: Fri, Feb 29, 2008 Check-Out Date: Mon, Mar 3, 2008Your Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $76.00Subtotal: $228.00Taxes & Service Fees: $37.75Total Charges*: $265.75The lowest rack rate on the Marriott website was $149+, for an all-in cost of $492.30, for savings of 46%.Tried to extend by an extra night, but came back with a counteroffer of $145 plus taxes for a total of $171.44. I will pass and keep looking elsewhere in the LA/OC area, since we leave out of LAX on the 4th. Yes, savingsbarn.com. Proud to be Canadian!
