Behold the power of the InterWeb.

Less than 24 hours after posting this, I got a great tip on a Virgin Airlines flight (red eye going, which I've always dreamed that Southwest would do someday) that ended up costing me $350. It's slightly less convenient than flying out of Oakland into BWI, but to save $600 I'd walk to SFO, fly straight into Washington DC and walk from the runway to my parent's house, so in the end this is a better deal. For everyone involved. Yeah, I'm cheap. I'm not shy about admitting that.

And now I'm going to start posting all my daily problems on this blog so that everyone can solve them for me! Magic.
