zukerama Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 2* Fairfield Inn Grand Forks - Won for $45.00 July 14-15Well, there was not one previous entry from Grand Forks, ND so I had nothing to go from!I was booking a room for my sister-in-law, as they were spending Sunday Night inFargo and Monday Night in Grand Forks. (We're from just north in Manitoba, Canada)With no past history, and the desire for a pool, I felt it necessary to bid a bit more for 2* than I normally wouldfor Minneapolis or Chicago.After winning a 2* in Fargo for $39.00, we decided to place an opening bid of $45.00,as there are NO rebid zones in Grand Forks, and the only other star level is 1*.Price was accepted for Fairfield Inn By Marriot, which was listed at $89.00- $92.00 on a number of different sites. My SIL was happy, as they have a 2 year old son, she can shop next door at Columbia Mall, andhubby can go to the pool with the son!Thanks Better Bidding, I used the PRICELINE link to buy this room.I can't believe, none of the Better Bidding community have ever used Priceline to book aroom in GF! Oh well, it feels good to be a pioneer!! Link to comment
