cpk4 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 We found a 3.5* in Ashley River for 12/26/08 - 12/29/08 on Hotwire for $73. Amenities were Smoke Free, Fitness, Pool, Restaurant & Laundry. From your great help on this forum, we determined that was the Marriott Charleston. We thought that was a good price, but we wanted a *great* price - so we tried PRICELINE. What's to lose? :) Bid on a 3.5* in Ashley River for $60 and were rejected. PRICELINE suggested that we rebid for $77. We knew that was more than HOTWIRE so we ignored the sucker deal. Instead we added Downtown (which also by default added 4*) and bid $68. Priceline accepted the bid and gave us the Marriott Charleston that we wanted. We got it for $5/night cheaper than HOTWIRE!Thanks for the help Better Bidding!-Chris Link to comment
