sdwow Posted February 19, 2010 Report Posted February 19, 2010 I saw others got the Holiday Inn in Goleta for $62. Unfortunately I didn't get it. Tried to rebid immediately having my spouse bid but PRICELINE knew it was a duplicate bid. Will try again tomorrow at a higher price.

sdwow Posted February 20, 2010 Author Report Posted February 20, 2010 Well, I only have one more chance to bid (tonight) since we are headed to SB tomorrow. I'll probably increase my bid by $5. If I had more time, I'd increase my bids incrementally up to about $75-$80. If I don't win my bid tonight, I'll likely book something through Hotwire in Goleta in the $80-$90 range. I don't want to change my search criteria to enable more bids because I really do want to stay in Goleta instead of Santa Barbara (our friends live in Goleta.)
thereuare Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 Given this is your last opportunity to bid, and if rejected you'll likely be spending $80-$90 i'd probably bid somewhere in the ~$75 area.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

sdwow Posted February 20, 2010 Author Report Posted February 20, 2010 My bid for $70 was just accepted (2-20-10 through 2-22-10). I got the 2.5* Holiday Inn in Goleta, as I was expecting. Thanks for the help! I used the PRICELINE link from this website.I initially bid $62 (on 2/18/10) and was rejected. My re-bid of $70 today (2/19/10) for a 2.5* in Goleta was accepted. I might have gotten it a few bucks cheaper if I had more days to bid.
