Anyone used Priceline for Boone hotels?



Just wondering what you bid??

never used pline for boone... however I use it ALL the time for other travel. It's almost a second religion to me.



the easy answer to your question.... check out http://p070.ezboard.com/fpricelineandex ... dingfrm199



they've got a strict moderator. but very helpful.



also, check out betterbidding.com.



I also have downloaded sidestep and travelaxe software programs. These are helpful in finding the cheapest places geographically.





As a helpful hint, check out the rates on Hotwire, then discount those rates by at least 25%. That is what a reasonable winning bid will be. Most hotels that use Hotwire also use Pline.



let me know if you need more help.

Thanks!



I asked for help on P-Line, but they won't give bidding help because I am not bidding immediately and I couldn't give them an answer for the re-bid zone. The closest re-bid zone is Lenoir and I don't want to stay that far away. I'll look at Hotwire and come up with a bid from their rate. I'd just rather pay $50 for Boone vs. $130, ya know!



I'll post how it goes in case others want to try for themselves...
