Using Coupons

Our friends in Florida told us that they stop at the first rest area when they reach in a new state during their drive home to pick up a coupon book.  In the coupon book, they find good deals for hotel rooms.

We decided to stop at a rest area late in the afternoon but when we picked up the coupon book, we found out it was for a different state than the one we wanted to stop at.

Later we stopped again, there was a coupon for a hotel called the Friendly Inn that looked really cheap.  When we found the Friendly Inn, we found out why it was so cheap.  It was a real dump.

There was another coupon for the Dutch Inn that was going to expire the next day.  We stopped there and got a room for $44 with our coupon. 

Barb wondered what the real price was.  When she asked the lady at the desk, the lady said it would normally cost $70.  It was a really nice place and Barb was happy to get such a good deal.
