or in my case, I have my own script that checks the forums(not just FT, other private travel forums), plus blogs, etc.. and sends me a text message, that way I always jnow whats going on, hence have been able to get in on every single deal that has been going on, plus on some that were mentioned but quickly closed by mods, and still alive...
Highly recommended.. : )

4) Book first, ask questions later
I'd recommend subscribing to the forum for updates but the email alerts don't come in fast enough to catch certain fares.
