Default Priceline :bowdown:

You know that commercial where Will Shatner comes up on a guy putting in a price for a hotel on priceline and then calls the guy names until he enters a price that's half of the usual price for that hotel? I thought that was a bunch of BS but thought I'd give it a try. I just got three nights in Baltimore's Inner Harbor for $125 a night! Most of them go for $300 or more the same weekend, including this hotel. :bowdown:

I'm always worried I'll get some shit hotel even though its rated 4.5 stars or whatever.


I want a guarantee where if I don't like what they choose for me I get my money back.

I wasn't too worried about the hotel since there aren't any shitty ones in the inner harbor.

They're great for airline tickets as well. I paid $120 for a ticket from San Antonio, TX to Baltimore, MD. Only purchased a week in advance.

I think I'm going to try it for some plane tickets to Baltimore too. I don't really want to drive that far.
