Online travel sites and travel agencies offer special deals if you're willing to bundle your travel with a stay in their preferred hotel. You'll get a discount on both travel and lodging for one stop shopping that will save you money. This is typically a one size fits all proposition, but if you don't like the idea of making holiday bargain hunting your hobby for a few weeks, choosing a bundled package may be the answer. Can you save more if you take a do it yourself approach to vacation bargain hunting? Well, probably. Your time is worth something, too, though, so factor that into the equation as well.
