Tip of the Week

Planning a trip sometime soon? This is a great way to make sure that you get a good deal. Yapta is a website that tracks your airline ticket price, hotel rooms, rebates etc. All you have to do is put in your info and if the price decreases you call up that company and get the difference.

For example: Someone buys a ticket round trip to Florida for $500, $250 outgoing and $250 returning. The return flight is now selling for $150. Yapta will alert you about the sale or drop in price so you can get your difference in airfare.

It may vary how you get your money back and some may not honor it (though most do).

A few days ago I had to give a customer a credit for $1,230!!!!! Talk about smart thinking when she used YAPTA!!!

Thanks for mentioning Yapta to your readers, Carrian. Since the site launched in May 2007, it has alerted more than 600,000 travelers to over $180 million in travel savings. Hopefully it'll help your readers save on their next trip too!
