ughhh, I hate doing new things!!

when I registered, I filled in all the info that was required,
then when I bid at the last minute, it reminded me I didnt have my credit card registered dohhh!!!

so I lucked out
but am ready for tomorrow

 

[lawgs]

Whoo hoo! You're at $37 and holding! lol

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

(I love when someone gets a good deal!)

 

[3boysmommy]

thanks for the support guys

I figure the one ending at 3:00 will go higher, but wanted to get a bid in to make sure I am registered correctly, so that I can bid to WIN the one tonight

oh, and I had a few friends sign up, and now have $30 in referrals

Sorry so late with an answer but I would do Orbit One for your dates...Too bad that you check in on the 25th because Silver Lake is great. Once you have won the auction..Call 1-800-929-9929 and ask skyauction if the 25th would be possible for Silver Lake.

They have helped us out in the past that way and it was great.

We had won one week and could only get a second week if we had an extra day in between. We called them and they "FOUND" us a week with the right check in date.

Worth a try.

what if I've already put a week on hold, will that matter when I call?

the calling idea will probably not work on the weekend

they are only open mon - fri

the hold you put on the room cancels out after 24 hours if you do not win the auction but do not know how this would affect your westgate bid since they have your cc on file .....they usually charge it once the auction is complete

silver lake westgate are both in the same area......silver lake is just a lil closer to sherbeth and the back entrance to Disney ( you would not have to go on 192 to get to disney from silver lake )

 

[3boysmommy]

darn it!! I lost
I was bidding up to $56 but they must have bid higher because it wouldnt let me and it ended! wahhh
will try again tomorrow LOL

I think the last minute bidding is NOT working! LOL
not like ebay

 

[lawgs]

3boysmommy

you might want to try the autobid feature, decide what your limit is and put that in near the end then it will automatically bid for you.....the winning bids tonight were 52 and 53 so if you had 56 in your auto bid you might have got it....last bid got in at 10:59

a couple dollars here or there is no big deal particularly when you want the WEEK

but it is exciting......=))

 

[3boysmommy]

well, that was my PLAN! LOL

but the other person(s) did that also, so it went up to $53 from $49, then I tried to do $56 and it ended on me!

I now have the $50 in referral bonuses
so can bid a little higher if I have to

I definitely want to win tomorrow, hate waiting til the last minute, want to get the room and not worry about it

 

[POLLY ANN]

Have you given up on us already?

 

[3boysmommy]

nope, getting ready to bid

I did put Silver Lake on request last night, and it disappeared as soon as I did!

so I guess I have it if I win the auction, is it better than Westgate??

 

[POLLY ANN]

3boysmommy, any news or did you give up?

 

[lawgs]

POLLY ANN

think she got silver lake finally ......and is busy planning restaurants etc now...

 

[3boysmommy]

POLLY ANN
yep, we got Silver Lakes

looks really nice!

I am now trying to figure out where to eat in the parks using our Q&C's and finding the local retaurants and stores.

everyone has been such a great help!!
I'm sure we will have a wonderful trip!!
