My month-long stare-down with a hotel website finally got me a steal.

I needed a cheap room for my vacation, so I checked the same site every day for weeks. The price dropped big right before I booked, saving me a bunch. How do you decide when to pull the trigger on reservations?

Love that strategy, I do the exact same thing. I pick my dates and just watch the price like a hawk for a couple weeks. My rule is to book it the second I see a drop that feels solid, because waiting for the absolute lowest almost always backfires. I missed out once by trying to wait one more day and the price shot back up. Now I just go for it when my gut says it's a good deal.

Totally get that gut call move. I hesitated on a flight last month and watched it jump two hundred bucks overnight.

One day? It went up that fast?
