For Frrrreeeeee :)

Anyone see Bedtime Stories? Loved that movie, and that saying keeps running through my head. My obsession with good deals is paying off. A few weeks ago I heard about this promotion that was going to be going on for a couple weeks, starting last week running Monday through Friday. The promotion is by Last Minute Travel, a newer company like Priceline. The deal is for 15 mins a day, their participating hotels will go for $1 a night. The catch is that you don't know when that 15 mins will be. And they only do it in 5 minute increments... So last week I started watching this website and also found another thread or chat room where people would say how they got through. For 3 days I watched it on and off, and then Thursday I decided I was going to try for 1 more day and then no more. It is heart wrenching. I got through on the first 2 days and got so close before time ran out. Anyway, Thursday night I decided I was going to get it if I had to stay at my computer all day. Not going to loose this great deal!!! Well, it got to 11:00pm and I was soooo tired. People on the chat room were giving up and going to bed. I thought I'd check my e-mail one last time before heading to bed defeated.

After that, I went back to the chat room and there had been a 5 minute segment! There was still 5 minutes that could come, so I stuck it out and sure enough, it did and I finally got through. MAUI, HAWAII for 7 days!!! Then I got my confirmation and it actually said it was FREE- there would be no charge to my credit card! Here's a picture of me after the all day affair! I was so excited I couldn't sleep for a while. Let me tell you- it was nuts! And this just goes to show you that if there is a good deal out there, I WILL FIND IT! And I will hunt it down and I will get it! Boo Yaa haaa haa :) We're going to Hawaii!
