For Spring Break last year my friend and I went to Cancun, Mexico. She suggested that we use Priceline Express Deals to book our hotel because she knew we could save up to 60 percent that way, the only catch was that we wouldn’t know the hotel until AFTER we paid. I was so skeptical about it because I kept thinking what if they put us in some dump hotel. I know I’m not the only one who felt this way. Fortunately, we ended up in a super nice 5 star hotel on the beach with ocean view rooms all for less than $100 a night.
