If you are trying to figure out how to take your family on a vacation this summer and want to save money along the way, here are a few suggestions:

1. Stick close to home. Consider staying in the U.S. this summer. The fall of the dollar makes going to Europe much more expensive, and if you were counting on London, expect the prices to double!

2. Guarantee yourself the lowest fare. After buying your ticket, enter your flight information into yapta.com. If prices fall and you’re eligible for a refund, you will be notified.

3. Consider waiting until the last minute to book your trip. Many last minute web sites offer deals on cruises, air and hotels. They are willing to sell at a steep discount just to fill the space.
