jrwessling Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Bid over multiple nights using a total of five zones. Ended up with the 3.5* Hilton Fort Lauderdale Airport for $91 for March 31, 2010. Total cost of $109.70. Hotel website cheapest prices was $159.00. Plan was to go up to about $95 before seriously considering HOTWIRE or just booking something off a travel website for peace of mind.Basic strategy: Started with a bid for a 3.5* in the Airport zone (zone 4) and progressively added four zones that only went up to a 3*.1st night: $55, $58, $61, $64, $67 --> None accepted2nd night: $58, $67, $73, $78, $82 --> None accepted3rd night: $73, $83, $88, $91 --> AcceptedUsed the PRICELINE link provided in the upper right corner of the betterbidding website. Now trying to get a place in Homestead to visit the Everglades. Link to comment
