That's why we are lucky as we only have ourselves to consider.

Even though we only returned from San Stef today, i've already looked for next year this eve and Portland have increased prices quite dramatically for 2010. Teresa's in June around £500 each for 2 weeks stay B&B. That's a £70 increase/person on what we just paid for the last 2 weeks! Think i might wait until Sept/Oct to book, because they'll start discounting hopefully.

If you can find the discount codes for Thomsons you will save £100.00. When I booked ours for next year the price is about £90.00 more for the fortnight than this years with Portland. Having watched prices over previous years I don't think the prices will drop. The 1st edition brochure is usually the cheapest.

Thompson's best discounts are usually at the end of December, & beginning of new year.
You have to keep checking for the big sale weekend's!!

See the post above - we watch Thompson's like hawks and you can always find a promotional weekend!! Best are the new year sale usually!

2010 prices were set when the exchange rate was particularly low, near parity, plus they have reduced the quantity of holidays overall, and add on the expected price hike anyway, so overall prices are well up. Another thing...rant forthcoming... we are told to pay by using a credit card in case of trouble then you have a case to take up with the card provider- BUT have you seen the percentage that Thomson charge for paying by card??? My wife paid the remainder for our September holiday today, and got a TUI c/c charge of £14. We have already paid extra when we booked, and when we paid the deposit balance, so I guess TUI have had nearly £20 out of us.
