If you are not in a hurry, it can be worthwhile to set a price alert and wait to see if the prices drop.

If you are flying domestic, make sure to check Southwest. The usually don’t come up in the comparison sites and are often the cheapest airline.

UP FOR A LITTLE ADVENTURE?
Priceline’s Name Your Own Price option promises to save you up to 40%. The down side is it doesn’t tell you the airline’s name and flight times until your reservation is confirmed.

COMPARISON SITES ARE NICE BUT…
Kayak and Momondo are good places to look for hotels, but they won’t always catch the cheapest deals. Better deals are often found by going directly to Expedia, Orbitz, and Priceline.

THE NEW KID ON THE BLOCK
TravelPony is a new website that is offering surprisingly great deals. Make sure to check it out!

ARE YOU THE GAMBLING TYPE?
The Name Your Own Price option of Priceline is highly recommended. You will only know which hotel you got after the reservation was made, but I was never disappointed with the hotels that the site reserved for me.

A MORE CALCULATED RISK
If you would like to know a few more details about the hotel before booking it, but are still feeling adventurous, Travelocity’s Top Secret Hotels and Hotwire are pretty good options

IS IT REALLY THAT CHEAP?
http://www.ofran.com
You reserve a car for ridiculously cheap price only to find out later that you need to add a lot of money for insurance. Ofran offers a great deal and includes all the necessary insurances in the base price.

GOOGLE IS A GREAT DEAL FINDER
http://www.avis.com
Are you already covered by private insurance? You can compare prices on Kayak, but also check the car rental’s website. They all give you an option to enter a coupon code, which can easily be found on google: “Avis Coupon Code” for example
