IrishRed Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 My partner suddenly needs to be in Waukesha for the weekend. Based on previous posters, I tried 3* Pewaukee area at $42, rejected. Added 3* Brookfield-New Berlin at $45, also rejected. Added 2.5* for both zones and dropped the price back to $42, accepted at Country Inn and Suites. Based on previous posts, I perhaps could have got it for $5-$10 less but since check in is tomorrow I didn't want to be full out rejected over a few dollars, as I don't have 24 hours left to replace the bid. The hotel lists a $149 rate for both nights, so I am happy at $42 regardless. And this hotel has decent reviews here and offers free breakfast and internet, which I don't think the 3*'s in this area do. Worth the extra dollars if I did indeed pay them:)I used the BB PRICELINE link.As a side note, I am new to the forum. I used to go to TOBB and then saw this forum in a FlyerTalk post yesterday. May I say that it is WAY better, and I am happy to support it by using the links to make my bids....which generally equal to 2-3 hotels a month, minimum.Happy bidding everyone! Link to comment
