    I grew up in Chicago and my mom still lives there. Gives me a good excuse to visit mom.

    I'm in.

    Not sure about wifey but if Shizz is bringing his other then mine may come too.

    How do I convince her to meet the other ladies and that we don't sit on our **** for 15 hours getting hammered and black lung.. I've got this feeling I'm going solo..
    Has she seen most of us? Outside of Barry, we don't miss many meals! Lol, there will be some delicious meals planned along the way. If she doesn't want to do all of the cigar-related events, there is plenty of shopping on Michigan Ave.......
    /////I think i can keep up with any and all of you. If you remember last year I kept up, and perhaps even out-ate little Ryan at that amazing sea-food place we eat at for Saturday lunch. There are not too many people who eat more in a day then me...that i have met at least. Beauty of having a high metabolism.

    The 1st 2 years we have stayed in a great Holiday Inn. Forget exactly which one, but they have a shuttle, pretty basic rooms, but a very good price. The shuttle is very critical to our adventure.

    I have hear the Holiday Inn @ Countryside. Right now rooms are $127/night but last year I think I read some got them for around $57. Im guessing if you wait a bit they will come down a good amount.
    Team O'Donnell FTW!

    Yeah I checked priceline, kayak, hotels.com and they are all the same price right now. If I remember right it was in Novemberish when members said they got that pricing so I'll sit tight for awhile.

    can you guys please let me know when a good price will hit for that hotel near Casa? Also, if anyone has a hook up for car rental, let me know too! I'm all about (w/in reason) cheap lodging and a cheap rental car! I'd much rather allocate my funds to chicago food and booze.
  • MVW67MVW67 Posts: 5,592 ✭✭✭✭
    We did bidding on Priceline for hotels in countryside, will pass along info on how, what $$ to bid on!

    Roomie, if you are getting a vehicle Priceline can work well also, just find a normal price on Priceline per day first, then bid half price per day, usually works!!!!

    Hey June Bug last year after I booked the hotel room in the confirmation email was a deal through Budget/Alamo on rentals during my stay .... I ended up booking a full size for 9 bucks a day picking up at Midway ..... After I met up with Luke and got our stuff they had no full size and gave me the choice of a ford escape, Hyundai Tucson or Mitsubishi outlander for the same price. Hope this helps.

    Those dates are a black out for me, due to holidays at work... grrr
  • jliujliu Posts: 7,735 ✭✭✭✭
    thanks fellas for the recommendations for lodging and car rental! I suggest all of you guys to come earlier so that we can be merry!
  • jadeltjadelt Posts: 763 ✭✭
    Someone should let them know we have a (large?) group coming in for a night of fun. Maybe we can get the VIP lounge? Or at least some notoriety.
  • TridentTrident Posts: 2,562 ✭✭✭✭
    I will speak to Sam. We never have a problem getting into the lounge. The private rooms are too small to accommodate a party bigger than 10.
