Today one of my friend at office showed how to save on travel. Most of it is knowing the right websites to search.
1. Hotel:
www.airbnb.com
This is a nice website which allows you to rent other people's house for couple of days at half the price of hotels.com
Tips on selecting the right house:
a) Read reviews posted on the house
b) Check to see if the house in the neighbourhood you are looking for.
c) Ensure that the photos on the reviwer's website are airbnb certified/verified
d) Finally, do lot of research
2. Cars:
Especially in SFO, use websites like
www.payless.com
You can find cars as cheap as $7/day.
3. Air Travel:
Always look for better airfare, look for promotions around the year.
