Cheaper air fare would be better. ha

I got back to Chicago yesterday, does that count as a trip?

Is there a way to find out what kind of discount I can expect? My friends and I are planning on going to Minneapolis for a Sox/Twins game in July, and the hotel we were planning on staying at is on that list, but it doesn't say what I can expect to save. I believe I saw it at like $90 a night for the days I picked.

How long is this rate discount good for?

Click on the hotel and select check rates. It shows original price and discounted price.

Haha! If I'm ever in TN, I'll look you up.

 

I think it will tell you in the Terms and Conditions when the deadline is...or not.

 

Last year it was originally Labor Day, but they extended it through the end of 2009.

It says it would cost me $128 a night.......soo....

Before or after the discount?

 

The original is crossed out right above the discounted rate.

I don't see any number crossed out. I don't know, clearly I'm an idiot and can't figure this out. This is the screen I see......

When I follow his link, the $100 price tag is crossed out and replaced with a discounted price.

 

Maybe there's no discount at that hotel?

Start over back at the top link and click the big orange button - Book Your Reservation Now.

 

It will show up then.

Ok, I finally got it. I had to reclick the link on the very first post and click the "Book Reservation" button or w/e the 3rd step says. I was clicking the link on the left side, and it was not activating the discount.

 

$75 a night is real nice, but then it says "Extra $10 per adult starting with the 3rd adult", which puts me back at $95 a night which is basically the same as it costs me on the other site. Oh well. It's a good discount if it's just two people though.

Knight have you ever heard if it is possible to use this with package deals? I didn't see it, so I doubt it, but I figured I would ask. The fam is looking at doing a getaway day in Indy. They have a package where you get 4 admits to both the zoo and the kids museum.

Got any rental car deals?

I don't believe so. Which hotel were you going to stay at?

Looking at one of the train suites in the Union Station Crown Plaza. They have a deal for $239 on a weeknight, for that particular package.
