Originally Posted By Tinkerbell819 I'm sorry, I was AWOL today...Smed is right Jen, I buy the cards on Ebay for about a buck. Mousesavers usually has a deal on the books, too. If you buy the 2009 one now, they may be on sale pretty cheap, but the card says it exp. 11/09. (So, the coupons may all expire then, too.) The 2010 book will be out in plenty of time for us to get cards for Dec. I use coupons all the time when grocery shopping, or for local restaurants and stuff, but for some reason, I never remember to use the ones in the ent. book. I think it's so big and filled w/so many coupons, that it's overwhelming for me to remember what I have a coupon for, and have always ended up throwing out the book after the deals expired...and have only used about 2 coupons! That's why I just buy the card! (I just got one in the mail today to use this summer...in case the rate comes up again!)

Originally Posted By u k fan I'm guessing they're flights that stop over at LAX on their way to/from NZ/London!!!
Originally Posted By u k fan Currently I can get Virgin for £402 or ANZ for £387 so it's a £45 saving! They don't fly in and out of SF though. I'm surprised at the locations they do have though!!!

Originally Posted By Jenn31 Thanks for the info everybody. It looks like the cost of the book will more than pay for itself with the money I'm saving at hojo's Plus all the other discounts at restaurants etc.Does the 2010 book come out at the end of the year?

Originally Posted By Tinkerbell819 Jenn, I think the book should be out by summertime for 2010. I'm not sure, though, I couldn't find any info on the site. They sell them for school fundraisers and such, so I imagine they'd have to be printed and ready to sell by Sept.
Originally Posted By Jenn31 Thanks Tinkerbell819! I noticed in the book they have a discount for the Pirate Adventure Dinner too. I've always wanted to give it a try and now with a super good discount I can!
