One Ticket to Paradise April 4, 2007

Posted by Patrick in : Travel, Friends , 5 comments

In a somewhat impulsive decision a couple of days ago, I bought a ticket to San Diego this weekend to spend four days out there to visit a friend. It looks like the trip will come at a great time because it’s supposed to snow in Pittsburgh this weekend.

The price for the ticket ended up being a Godsend. I started looking at 5 PM on Monday evening and prices were well above $500 for a round trip ticket for Saturday to Tuesday. I continued to scour the net, hoping for a better deal. Two hours later, I found a round trip on Expedia for $210 for the exact dates I wanted.

And then I found out later that my friend was praying for ticket logistics and a cheap fare so that I would still be a good steward of my money and not blow several hundred dollars on a plane ticket. Imagine that!
