Priceline!

We are leaving for LA this Friday and will pick up Gene's mom and drive back. When in the LA area we usually stay at the Comfort Suites in Stevenson Ranch. It is a nice, 2 star hotel. The best rate I could get for this hotel, before taxes was $86.82 (average).

I decided to try Priceline. Since you cannot pick your specific hotel, I was a bit concerned. To provide a bit of insurance, I decided to request a 3 star hotel and put down a bid price of $60 per night. It was accepted! With taxes we are paying $70 and staying at the Hilton Garden Inn Valencia Six Flags. There is a restaurant and lounge, room service and a swimming pool.

I am so thrilled! Hopefully the hotel will live up to it's billing.

Frugal is the new black!
