Confessions of a Social Climber

Auto-bidding??? How hot is that???!

You may remember a previous post of mine about joining the Win a Trip thing, and gosh, things just got a whole lot more exciting — imagine, say, if you were into ForEx (Foreign Exchange) there’s this thing called “risk factor,” and, as you know, when it’s YOUR money on the line, there’s no such thing as a gamble — a broker will cut off from putting your money on the line when it hits a certain amount.

Imagine having a “travel broker” play out until a specific amount, (the amount of money you’re willing to spend) increasing increments at a minimum, and yet topping the last bids, assuring that you’re in the lead.

This is done to eliminate the need to constantly check your bid if you need to hit it higher or not. (As to why they’re doing this? I’ve no idea — are they really giving away flights? OMG!)

Imagine going home one day, after a hard day at work, only to find out that you’ve won yourself and a loved one that dream vacation? Isn’t that something? It may not seem like a big deal to other people, but for truly busy people who want to keep travel planning as hassle-free as possible, this is pure gold. (Or they may not know the joys of traveling? Hahaha!) As a talented songwriter named Ms. Stefani once said, “What you waiting for?”
