There’s a lot more to Wisconsin than apples and cheese, although no one will refute the pleasure and smiles they bring. The best of Wisconsin is the land itself: the state’s 98 parks and recreation areas, its location on the clean, clear waters of the Great Lakes, and its 10,000 miles of rivers, streams, and creeks renowned for cold water trout fishing at its finest. And don’t forget that its fall festivals include fun festivities, food tastings, live music, arts, and crafts that bring in people by the millions. And then there’s Lambeau Field, home to the-one-and-only Green Bay Packers, where if you’re like most Packers fans, you’re likely to get as into the game as the players! Or, if the outdoors and football really aren’t for you, you always have Madison, Oshkosh, and of course, Milwaukee, all of which offer unique forms of entertainment, dining, lodging, and shopping. So get to know Wisconsin, or in some cases reacquainted, you’ll be glad you did. |

| Travel Auctions-Fun Way to Bargain Travel |
By now you’ve probably used an online booking site like Expedia or Travelocity. These sites are easy to use and often offer great deals on travel packages, hotels, car rentals, and flights. But, there is an even more fun and easy way to book your travels online! Consider participating in a travel auction! Online travel auction sites allow users to bid on a variety of travel deals and may offer greater savings than other online travel sites. Just like any other auction site, users search for and then bid on specific “items” during the bidding period, when the bidding period ends the user with the highest bid wins the item. Typically, travel details are entered after a winner is chosen. Here are some helpful tips for using a travel auction site: *Be patient. Travel auction sites are getting very popular and some people are bidding way over cost but deals can still be found if you are patient. *Read all the fine print, as there may be taxes and fees that can increase the price. Sometimes the increase can be quite significant so you should consider the total cost (after tax and fees) when bidding for an item. *Be flexible. Travel auctions are not ideal for travelers that require traveling on specific dates. Sometimes you may purchase the item and then chose dates at a later date. *It may be helpful to know on average what the cost would be through a travel agent or other site. If the bids get too high, it may be easier to go elsewhere. *See if there are any auction alert systems available on the site. Use this function to track your auctions. If available, it may be beneficial to see how items have been selling in the past. This can help you establish a maximum bidding price. Sometimes booking travel and planning may be boring and tedious but with travel auctions, you can have fun while getting a great deal. To get started check out skyauctions.com! |
