Initially bid $135/night, declined free re-bid @$157. Tried again later in the day @ $140 with an added area, declined a re-bid @ $162.

Next, had my wife try a bid at $125 to see if she'd get a free re-bid at $147. No luck. Used up a bunch of free bids by adding areas and eventually worked back up to $148. Still no luck.

Came back two days later to find that I had one more "added area" bid left on my first request. Tried a final bid of $150 and got a message that said I'd entered the incorrect security code for my credit card and that Priceline couldn't process my request!

This told me that they would accept the $150 bid. I looked around one last time to see if there was anyway I thought I could beat the price. Once I was satisfied I couldn't, I resumed the bid and won it.

Some bids are certainly harder than others... glad to hear of your success and satisfaction with the outcome!

Thanks for sharing the rejections and subsequent acceptance with the board.

Enjoy your stay!
