About Me
I'm Dan. Friends and family started calling me the unofficial travel agent years ago, mostly because I could never book anything without checking six tabs first.
That habit turned into this site. I test the codes before they go up, I pull the ones that stop working, and every hotel review here is a place I paid for and stayed in myself. If a deal is not worth your money, I would rather say so than fill a page with it.
Some of it you will not find anywhere else. On top of the deals I hunt down, I negotiate exclusive offers and promo codes directly with brands for my readers.
