smitty2424 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 Guy trip for some Angel baseball and MMA fighting...looked for a good (cheap) deal as I am traveling with bottom feeders. Used the PRICELINE link from this site. Wanted the Disneyland area...so I utilized the free rebid strategy as follows...Opened at $35 for Disneyland 3*...rejected!Added Anaheim Hills (no 3* here) and upped to $41...rejected!Added Laguna Beach (no 3* again) and went to $46...rejected!Added Laguna Hills (no 3* again) and upped to $52...rejected!Added Seal Beach (my last free rebid) and went with $57...and was shocked I got rejected (usually get the Disney area in or below this range)!Now I had a tough choice! I could have waited the 24 hours and tried later...but I decided to add the Costa Mesa-Irvine area which had active Priceline 3*'s in it. I knew in particular that the Doubletree at the airport was going at $45 by checking this forum. Therefore I backed my offer back down to $45...and got my win. The Doubletree site has the room at $95 (cheapest) right now. I gave it a good effort...and still came out with a heavier wallet...
