Research, research, research...

That is what you need to do if you have plans of traveling on a budget. You would be able to save a lot of money if you know where to go and when to go. And with the current technology, you need not call everyone you know for tips (although that could still help) or head for the library. You can stay home, log on and scour for information which might help you find the best travel deals.

However... there are some information from reliable sources (such as travel experts) which you need to read the old-fashioned way (yup, you need to turn pages and you can even dog-ear some of them). Books like, Make Your Travel Dollars Worth a Fortune - The Contrarian Traveler's Guide to Getting More for Less by Tim Leffel

"Have you ever bought a calendar on January 1? If so, you probably paid half what buyers did a day or two earlier, even though you'll use it the same number of days. Have you ever bought a dozen roses on February 15? Christmas candy on December 26? A bathing suit in September? A leather coat in March? In each case you probably got the goods for half price or less. Same product, same function, but peak season is gone. Smart travelers use this principle to their advantage."


So, before you head off, make sure that you have Make Your Travel Dollars Worth a Fortune to accompany your Lonely Planet guide book.
