Cheap Package Tours for Shoppers to Seattle?
At the moment, there are many package tours for Albertans to go to Las vegas,
for shopping and so on. These packages include air fare, hotels and often car rentals - all for extremely good prices, especially for seniors. Is there such packages for seniors to go to Seattle-Tacoma, for lots of shopping, say with Horizon/Alaska Air, from edmonton or Calgary? Washington State Tourism, there are lots of us willing to spend, spend, spend, if you can organize the trips. |

Why would you want a shopping package making you captive to the places your tour operator takes you to? Do your research on shopping in your destination city. Check for easy to get to Outlet Centers or Malls. Get a package air/land deal from Priceline, Hotels.com or whichever discounter you wish to use. Use a travel agent, sometimes they can offer packages not available on the internet. Do a little research on the things you want to buy. Better bargains may be available at places like Amazon.com, Overstock.com, hsn.com, qvc.com or shopping.com -- ________ To email me, Edit "blog" from my email address. Brian M.

I don't know why you would want to do that. But apparently enough people want to do that to make it profitable for someone to offer this package. |

When prices in vegas are 30-40% cheaper than in Alberta, sensible shoppers
gladly go on shopping package tours to vegas!! Until Canuck retailers stop swindling buyers, more and more Canadians will shop where they are appreciated, and where they get more for their money.

How much could you possibly save flying to Vegas, taking taxis from the airport, staying in a hotel, meals, etc.? You can only bring a few dozen pounds of luggage back, so it's not like you can buy a plasma TV or something expensive and bring it home on the plane. It's sounds like an excuse to justify an unnecessary shopping spree. |

-- Socrates taught his students that the pursuit of truth can only begin once they start to question and analyze every belief that they ever held dear. If a certain belief passes the tests of evidence, deduction, and logic, it should be kept. If it doesn't, the belief should not only be discarded, but the thinker must also then question why he was led to believe the erroneous "Kenneth McVay OBC" wrote in message ...

Advertisements, solicitations, or other commercial messages may be posted only in those newsgroups whose charters or FAQ?s explicitly permit them.

This includes attempting to circumvent the approval process for posting to a moderated newsgroup. (Grosvenor jumps from identity to identity in the vain hope he won't be recognized. This by necessity involves forging the "From" data in the header.) |
