lizamead Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Started bidding on 3* Oconomowoc for 8/4-8/6 at $38, adding free rebids in $1 increments up to $43. (Hotwire had a 2.5* for $48, so that was my comparison since I didn't care as much abt star level.) Started a new bid for 2.5* at $32, increasing up to $38, no luck. Did similar bids for the next few days, increasing slightly until I got up to $48 with still no luck, so started over at 2* Oconomowoc at $40, rejected, then added Delafield (I was fine with either of those two towns, and used the other choices only as free rebids - lots of those for 3* and 2.5* and some for 2* as well) at $44 and hit. I should have used the free rebids and not increased the four dollar increment that time, so I might have overpaid by a few dollars, but by then I was tired of waiting, and still got a good deal with La Quinta compared with both hotwire and direct options. Ended up extending a night with "add-a-night" for the same $44, although with the added service fee of course, so not as good a deal as if I'd done it all together, but still a good deal. Stay was also very positive - review to follow. Link to comment
