My travel for this year is in place, and I have half a year to go before using various discount codes and companion fares within a couple of months before they expire. Black Friday and Cyber Monday offer a nice timing, but often require a discount code, and you can use only one at a time. I need to map this out carefully, and if I don't get going before winter, the window will feel tighter than the lid on an unopened jar of strawberry jam. Good thing I used up my wallet money from various certificates just the other day.
