Same with nz, au, JP, HK, in, and .com.

With no success DP this year, I come to think Expedia promos worldwide are just gimmicks.

Are they issuing more through the day like they did last year?
I think everyone is right, I tried hard this year and the last couple of years but they are sort of a gimmick.

Doesn't seem so If a certain hotel deals site is to be believed, Monday offers will be refreshed hourly Noon-6pm EST

Same here - I refreshed and refreshed and refreshed and the yellow codes text never showed on the page until the 75%s were all redeemed.

I tried a BUNDLE500 dummy booking for Mediterranean Inn Seattle March 21-26 (before the March 31 cutoff date) and there was no coupon code box to click open, so I tried the Dec 7-9 dates listed on the promo page and voila, the code box was there. That particular package is listed at $318 pp, which makes no sense for a $1000 minimum booking requirement.

As frustrating as this promo is, Expedia at least makes BF/CM fun compared to all the other borrrrring OTAs and their meager percentage coupons.

I came close to getting a 75% deal but had a card mix up. This is nerve racking, though, and it would be worse on Monday with the hourly refreshes. I did get a 50% deal last year though that was decent, so I have mixed feelings about this...

I also had the 75% code applied and taken. But the checkout on the mobile app sucks. It errored out on the last step without explanation. Then the code expired. The whole thing is within 10seconds. I'm not sure if your card mixed up situation is similar to mine. I had the right card and all right information but card didn't go through. Still not sure if it is by checking out the code has already expired or the app bug.

I think we had the same problem, the card didn't go through, but should have. I did mine on the laptop, much faster and no more than 4 sec, but still fail...

The Fairmont 40% off deal is pretty good (part of Accor now I think) as they have some nice properties including major cities, resorts, etc. Very unimpressed with the others.

I had no problems using the Expedia -75% code and snagged 4 nights with breakfast at the Shangri La in Bangkok. I was refreshing constantly and typed it into my cell straightaway...

Congrats first! How did you find out this one is eligible? Doesn't seem like this one is listed in the hotel list. And i thought majority of the chain hotels don't take the coupon. Thanks!

I think they're all exhausted by now. with the hotels.com promo you could just view source and keep refreshing the page until a 99% off code appeared.
