| Travel Auctions-Fun Way to Bargain Travel |
By now you’ve probably used an online booking site like Expedia or Travelocity. These sites are easy to use and often offer great deals on travel packages, hotels, car rentals, and flights. But, there is an even more fun and easy way to book your travels online! Consider participating in a travel auction! Online travel auction sites allow users to bid on a variety of travel deals and may offer greater savings than other online travel sites. Just like any other auction site, users search for and then bid on specific “items” during the bidding period, when the bidding period ends the user with the highest bid wins the item. Typically, travel details are entered after a winner is chosen. Here are some helpful tips for using a travel auction site: *Be patient. Travel auction sites are getting very popular and some people are bidding way over cost but deals can still be found if you are patient. *Read all the fine print, as there may be taxes and fees that can increase the price. Sometimes the increase can be quite significant so you should consider the total cost (after tax and fees) when bidding for an item. *Be flexible. Travel auctions are not ideal for travelers that require traveling on specific dates. Sometimes you may purchase the item and then chose dates at a later date. *It may be helpful to know on average what the cost would be through a travel agent or other site. If the bids get too high, it may be easier to go elsewhere. *See if there are any auction alert systems available on the site. Use this function to track your auctions. If available, it may be beneficial to see how items have been selling in the past. This can help you establish a maximum bidding price. Sometimes booking travel and planning may be boring and tedious but with travel auctions, you can have fun while getting a great deal. To get started check out skyauctions.com! |

| The state of Vermont is a beautiful land of green pastoral farms, tall trees, rolling hills, and winding waterways. A 270-mile long path known as The Long Trail snakes along the backbone of the Green Mountains, making for excellent hiking and overnight camping excursions along the way. Speaking of camping, there are over 100 campgrounds in the state just waiting for visitors to roast marshmallows, tell ghost stories, and enjoy the scenery and wildlife. Visitors might even be lucky enough to spot a moose or the elusive gray fox. However, for those that prefer more deluxe accommodations, there are plenty of high-end lodges, hotels, and bed and breakfasts scattered throughout the state. And after a good night’s sleep, golfers will likely want to tee off in some of the most visually stunning golf courses in the East, designed by the likes of Jack Nicholaus and Robert Trent Jones. For those into higher impact sports, Vermont’s many waterways and lakes are perfect for kayaking, canoeing, sailboarding, scuba diving, fishing, or leisurely tube rides. But nature isn’t the only splendid attraction in Vermont. It’s also a great place for concerts that attract popular performers to its intimate, small venues. Vermont ski lodges and nearby clubs are also great places to catch both established and up and coming musicians. On a different note, Revolutionary War buffs will also love Hubbarton Battlefield and Bennington Battle Monument. And after all of the activities, don’t forget to wake up early, catch the sunrise, and have nice big stack of pancakes, with a healthy helping of pure Vermont maple syrup.
