Word is spreading quickly on this deal. Our chances of booking fast enough are a lot lower now that sites like SD are opening doors to the hordes. At least I can have reason to be a lot more "realistic" about getting in on this over the next week.

As I posted earlier, the lady I talked to in their customer service dept said it will begin the last week in January, which is the 26th.
I've also read some stuff on other sites where they talk about a sale very similar to this one that they did in Europe a little while back. $10 (or pound) rooms. And from what I saw, it appeared to work. Here's hoping the same happens for us.

Travelodge UK ran that special, starting at midnight Dec. 31. It took me about 2 hours of trying before I was able to get onto their page (otherwise, server busy)
Didn't find a 9 pound room, but did get one for 19 X 3 nights, $84 ai, central London. Made boss very happy.

Hi all,
I think it was the £10 www.lastminute.com special offer days that the poster was talking about not Travelodge.
That 'lastminute' is a totally separate company to the lastminutetravel.com that are holding this $1 sale. lastminute.com are part of another big company (travelocity if I remember correctly, on PDA so can't check or open another browser window now I've started typing this!).
I get so flippin' nervous when these promos surface, was posting on here and actively shaking sat in the local library on the website during the Leading hotels deal when the website crash happened.
Better luck this time to those that weren't successful on that one (inc. me)

Just got this msg, but I don't even know if it's a clue or just a delaying email to keep me intrigued: "Can you keep a secret? Because I can't.

You all get that when you signed up, or is there a hint concealed within?
