Quick Sales

Recently, a new trend has emerged for online shopping. Private sale websites offer luxury products for large discounts, but the catch is that it’s only for a limited time. Many are invitation only, but it’s well worth searching around the internet for someone who posted their invite link. There are so many of these sites around, and if they aren’t targeted strictly towards travel, they usually still feature a few different hotel sales.

These sales are only available for about 2-3 days but if you are quick enough to book, the savings are about 50% off (or more) a night. Another great feature is that if you invite someone and then they book, you receive a credit.

Here are a few vacation-only sites:
·         Vacationist.com
·         Jetsetter.com
·         Sniqueaway.com

These sites feature travel, as well as kitchen goods, apparel, accessories, etc.:
·         Ruelala.com         
·         Ideeli.com
·         Hautelook.com

I haven’t book any vacations through one of these sites yet, but I have purchased other goods at extremely low prices. My cousin however, just got back from a trip to Cabo that her and her husband booked through one of these sites. She said that after she purchased, she received an email confirmation and voucher. She then called up the hotel, read the confirmation code and told them the days that she was coming down. She said the hotel was beautiful, the trip was perfect, and that she’ll be booking more vacations through private sale websites.
