Vacations

As we all know during this tough economy we often find ourselves stressed, overworked, exhausted and anxious. Not only are we having these types of emotions because they are simply our jobs, but these emotions have been heightened with people currently losing their jobs left and right and the foreclosure rate going through the roof. Although most things in life cost money, it doesn't necessarily mean that you need to spend alot of money to enjoy some extra luxuries in life. This is where I come in, I am Laura and I REFUSE to pay full price for ANYTHING and am a deal finder.

Now let's get somethings straight first, I will not sit here and say that I have NEVER paid full price because there are somethings that are necessities in life that you can not always control the price of, for example gasoline. But when it comes to luxuries such as vacations, retail items, and basically anything of those sorts you can most definitely always find a deal... you just need to know how to find them.

So my Deal of the Day is from Spirit Airlines. Although flying or using Spirit Airlines is not the most luxurious airline company these days, they are definitely one of the most economical around. I am on their email list and they always send emails on certain deals they have. I bet most of you get these emails but delete them because they are often mistaken to be spam.

This one particular deal is for vacations to various different locations, WARM locations, which us people in Michigan really like at this time of the year. With the deal you have airfare and a three night hotel stay at the choice destination. A couple of catches is that I believe you have to book your flight on a Monday and in the Promotions section you need to enter "Top Picks". I also believe with this price that you have to book before the end of May but I am not 100% positive. (Note: price does not include tax and airline fees)

Elle's Top 3 Deals for 3 Different Destinations (based on departure from Detroit Metro,trip for 2. and standard accommodations):

1.) Las Vegas: Excalibur Hotel &Casino: $417.22 per person

2.) Cancun: Celuisma Dos Playas: $458.69 per person **ALL INCLUSIVE**

3.) Orlando: DoubleTree Hotel at Entrance to Universal Orlando: $393.47 per person


So you might be thinking to yourself, "Well how do I know this is a good deal?" One reason why I found these to be great deals is from a few experiences. First about three- four years ago I went to Mexico and paid just under $1,000 just for MYSELF to go to Mexico including airfare staying in an all inclusive hotel. I also know friends who have gone to Las Vegas who paid $400 alone just for the air fare . If you click on the link it will take you Spirit Vacations and it will give other deals to other destinations than the few I listed.
