Hey Family Travelers,

Syndicated columnist Eileen Ogintz of www.takingthekids.com needs your help finding holiday travel deals for families. She says:

"Is it cheaper to getaway this holiday than last year? Tell me your best
deal for families and how much cheaper it is than last year. Aiming for
December deals but might include some for Thanksgiving. Have you dropped
minimum stays and high season rates?"

If you know of any deals, drop Eileen a line at eileen@takingthekids.com and mention you're a member of Tripatini.com! Her deadline is 01:11pm EASTERN - 13 November 2009.

Thanks to all!
