Kavita: What I wouldn’t give to Get away for a little vacation!
Bill: Me, too, but we can’t Afford it.
Kavita: Oh, I don’t know. It’s Off-season in a lot of popular places right now, so it may be Doable.
Bill: Maybe. We’d have to find some pretty Deep discounts. There is a big advantage to traveling during the Low season, though. It’s a lot less Crowded.
Kavita: Yeah, I like that. I’ll see if I can find a Package deal that includes airfare and Lodgings. That may give us the best Deal.
Bill: We Have one thing going for us. We have Flexible travel dates, which should make it easier to take advantage of any Special promotions.
Kavita: That’s true. I’ll start looking online and I’ll let you know what I find.
Bill: I know what a good Bargain hunter you are, so if anyone can find a good deal, it’s you.
Kavita: I’m not at all sure I can find something we can afford, But it won’t be for a lack of trying. I really need that vacation!
