not quick enough...

on my personal yahoopage, i track assorted fares to faraway places like Dayton, OH and Buffalo, NY. hey, even domestic destinations can be exotic heh.

really though. i've been keeping an eye on any super cheapo fares that slip through the cracks. and within the last month, i've seen sales to Dayton (for my friend, Cindy, who wants visit her mom in october) for $150...Buffalo, NY for $141...San José, Costa Rica for $199 (which is unheard of...i paid $650 in 1992).

and now, there was some obscene fare to Mexico City for $49 plus tax (which is usually $91 for most mexico destinations)...making it $140 total! AND, of course, all the allotted seats have sold out (duh). i just wonder how many seats were offered and who had the sale... damn, wotta deal.

guess i'll just keep looking. the new fare lookout is for Denver to Chicago-O'Hare. my mom is going for a convention in early september. sorry, ma...looks like you're gonna shell out $200.
