These are invaluable tips and tricks to help you get the most for your dollar!

When you travel look for the best deals and always plan your trips down to the minute. It will save your marriage.

* Always ask the hotels you are placing reservation with whether or not they validate the parking.
* Use sites such as Priceline to book your needs such as Hotels and Rentals and Airlines (If you have flexibility with you time). When it says that your super low bid for that 3 Star Hotel is too low and will not be accepted hit enter. If it says no takers then try again! On our weekend to San Francisco we saved about $175 on our hotel per night!! That’s right the going rate for the Hilton was $300 a night on the pier on a weekend we bid $125 and presto!
* Don’t go crazy with the saving mindset at some point you have to pack your bags and enjoy your trip. The saving are done at home.
* Call the local chamber of commerce of each individual city you are visiting or your own chamber of commerce for group trips or special tour rates. We have found trips to China at 25% the cost through COC’s. Some of these trips are actually sponsored by city/government to foster trade.
* Remember to pick up business cards as to prove to the IRS that this is a legitimate business trip.
* Look for travel groups to destination areas of the World!

I have found an excellent site that scans and compiles listings from hundreds of sites. The site is called KAYAK! This site unlike other websites includes airlines such as Jet Blue and cheaptickets.com. Try it out and submit any news you may have!
