Travelzoo can save you $$$$.

I just saved my in-laws $1,000 on their upcoming vacation. That's not a typo. How did I manage such a feat? The answer is a little website called Travelzoo. They list tons of deals on hotels, flights, vacations, etc., all in one convenient location, so you don't have to scour the Internet for deals. I subscribe to their weekly emails, and it just so happened that I saw a 50% off deal for the Atlantis Resort. Knowing that my in-laws had made travel arrangements to go to Atlantis for my mother-in-law's 60th birthday in June, I forwarded them this info in the hopes that they could get the discounted rate.

My father-in-law called last night. They were able to cancel their earlier reservations and make new ones with the 50% Travelzoo discount, saving them almost $1,000. I've never heard him so giddy. Needless to say, I will be in their good graces for quite a while after this. :)
