- When booking flights, hotel rooms, and rental cars:
We recommend that you use Priceline.com. This website allows you to get the best deals on what you want. If, for example, you don't mind which hotel you get in a specified area, you can "Name Your Own Price." This is where you can BID on a room. Lets say you want a 4 star hotel in San Francisco... well, you enter the location, and the star rating you want. Then, you enter a price. It will give you an estimate of the average price of that hotel rating, so go a little lower than that. You can get many more tips about Priceline by going here!

When spending extensive amounts of time in the airport (for example spending the night there like we are doing now) it is important to be extremely creative in order to survive the long night.

(We may have tried some or all of these at one point tonight)
- Take long walks
- Beg for free water until someone gives in and doesn't make you pay 55 cents for a cup of water
- Talk to random people on pay phones
