Hotel Cash Club, affiliated with Expedia.com has a promotion going on right now, for $25, you get a $50 booking credit to use on Expedia.com. It's very similar to a Groupon deal.
edit: FYI: according to the fine print, it can take 5-7 business days before you receive your booking credits in your e-mail, so don't panic if you don't get something right away.
mik3ster said: to maximize this deal, you can stay up to 3 nights with -$50/night if you buy 3 of these and book them seperately.
you would have to check in/out and move rooms but true fw'ers would shrug that off.
and of course combine this with hotel promos
Unless the hotel was really crowded and/or they're just pissed because you used Expedia, they'd probably combine the reservations for you and let you stay in the same room (it also helps them because they don't have to re-clean the room).

even if they combined the reservations that's fine since all the expenses were already paid through Expedia
I guess question was: when might the opportunity expire?

This guy is selling Best Rate Guarantee Coupons. THIS IS NOT LEGAL!!! He Books a hotel. Calls Expedia that he found a better rate. Get's the $50 best rate guarantee coupon, cancels the room and then sells the account to you.
Again this is NOT legal!!! And... if not worse... completely ruins the Best Rate Guarantee Program.
Another red flag is that this site is hosted on Netfirms.com, a $5 a month hosting company, along with domain contact privacy which masks the owners information.
Where does your info come from? How many coupons would he have to sell then?

It was discussed at flyertalk. Someone purchased them. They needed username and password of his Expedia account or they would create a new new account for him. A bit iffy if you ask me. After a couple of days he received the account and it had Best Rate Guaranteed coupons in it.
