Bid hotels on priceline.com
I've heard of bidding hotels on priceline.com for a long time, but have never tried that feature. I played it today and it was very cool. Highly recommended.
I am going back to Pittsburgh for my commencement this May and will stay there for the weekend. I got 3 nights at Courtyard Pittsburgh Downtown for $48 per night. It is a pretty decent price as the rate from their website is $139 per night. I started my bidding for all the 3-star hotels in downtown area and university center area from $40 per night and raised it gradually. It is quite like trading a stock and is a lot of fun. My next target is to get a Manhattan 4-star hotel at the price of $130 per night for my trip to New York city after the commencement.
