I'll start off this thread while I still have a little time today.
With the deadline for the hotel deal looming, I am looking for a few others to chip in for a room for the duration. I can afford, at best, about 40-50 a day for lodging, so a four-person share is best for me, though I can swing a three-person. My current plan is to drive up on Sunday and, likely, leave after the estimated conclusion on Wednesday, so I'd be looking for roommates with a Sunday-Tuesday night plan.

Roommates is one of the best movies Peter Falk ever made.
Yes, I know that's irrelevant, but it's nonetheless true.

I'm also looking for roommates to share a room. I would like to be one of 4 roommates, if possible. I'm older and female. I don't have a problem sharing with people that aren't like me. I was looking at the Apple hostel, but it is a youth hostel and at 57, I can't pass for young. I'm a liberal progressive that has been active with Occupy Las Vegas and Occupy Kingman.

I will be happy to share a room with you mohavehiker. I am a 58 year old woman who has been with the woman of my dreams for 35 years. We were legally married in Canada in 2008. I already have my reservation but it is for a room with one king bed. Just called to switch to two doubles but the lady said none are available at this time. She said she would note my request. If there is a double available at the time I check in, it can be changed then. If you're willing to risk not not having your own double bed, I'm willing to risk not having my own double bed. Sleep is sleep, right? Cost for the stay from July 1-4 is $376.70. Let me know.

I'm also all for sharing a room. I'm a younger male. I don't care if I get the couch; I find them more comfortable than many beds anyway!

I have a room already reserved at the Hilton July 1-5. I would like to share with another lady, non smoking, relaxed.
The night of the 4th is a little more expensive, but not much. I expect there will be some festivities in the evening.

I would like to share a room, preferably with another female, or 2, or 3. I do not have a reservation so I would need someone who does. Please email me, wilkersonkv@gmail.com. Thanks! Also, if anyone is interested in carpooling from NC let me know, not completely sure I'll drive yet, but if we can fill a car it may be worth it.

Kristin! I'm glad you made it onto these boards... I was beginning to worry that I might be the only NC delegate that's going :/
So here's the thing about transportation: I have an event in Atlanta from June 30-July 1, so I think its better for me to fly from ATL > Philly and back, leaving my car in ATL for the week. I can also drive back, but it would be late by the time I ended up in NC. As is I may be late to the first day of the convention assuming that I catch a red eye flight for Monday morning.

Would still like to know if I could room with anyone at the convention? I would like very much to room with people that will be wanting to save or If its possible to get a group to go in or what we can do?

The difficulty, turbo, at this point, is trying to find a room in Philadelphia, on the 4th of July holiday "weekend" with both us, the Occupy National Gathering, and every other event taking place.
My income is not the greatest. I could easily afford chipping in with others on a room, but I do not have the funds available to hold or book a room in advance.
Of course, I'll be driving, so I have to figure out how much parking is going to cost, as well.
