I like saving money. I always have. Even before the current economic downturn forced people to look for ways to save money, I was being as frugal as possible. Saving money is like a game to me. I always want to save as much as humanly possible. That applies to everything that I do.

When I go grocery shopping, I plan my trip with military precision. I have a list of the things that I want and I know what each item costs. I know where everything is in the supermarket. Wasting time costs money and I don’t like wasting time or money. Almost everything that I buy is on sale. Mu weekly menus are planned around what is on sale at the supermarket that week. That way I get the most for my money. I buy clothing out of season. Did you know that winter coats are dirt cheap in early spring? Well they are. Just like summer shorts are cheapest at the end of summer. Simple tricks like that save me money. But what good is saving money if you can’t put your savings to good use. One way to spend your saved money is on travel.

With money as tight as it is, travel is a luxury for most people. After all, who can afford a vacation when everything is as expensive as it is? Not too many people can afford a dream vacation to a beautiful destination without finding a way to cut their costs along the way. Flying on a low cost, high quality airline like JetBlue is one way to get the most out of your vacation dollar.

JetBlue has made airline travel affordable for so many people that previously would not have been able to fly. That is one reason why they are so successful. They give fliers so many ways to save money on their flights. It’s a smart strategy for them because if you save money, you are more likely to travel more. And if you like the way that JetBlue treats you, you are more likely to fly with them. Finding discount flights on JetBlue is relatively easy if you know some of the tricks. Here are a few of my favorites.

One of my favorite discount ticks involves one of the most popular websites in the world. That website is twitter. Twitter is useful for more than just micro-blogging. There are some great deals if you know where to look. The best place to look for JetBlue deals is to check out their twitter feed @JetBlueCheeps. That feed lists discounts on JetBlue flights every Tuesday. There are deals that you can’t believe. But they don’t last forever and you have to move on them as quick as possible.

Another great way to save is to check out JetBlue’s website (JetBlue.com). JetBlue lists new deals everyday on their website. They also have a great feature that allows you to sign up for exclusive deals on travel. Your inbox will be flooded with cheap fares and travel packages.

If you are looking to save money the next time that you fly, you can’t afford to ignore these tips. They will put more money in your pocket for you to spend when you get to your travel destination.
