September and October are just about the best bargain months of the year for people who want to go on cruises, people who want to go anywhere in the United States and people who want to go to Europe.

If you’re thinking about a cruise, Clark says September and October are typically the time to find a bargain. The best deals on cruises usually occur three weeks or less before sailing. It’s great if you can be spontaneous!

When it comes to booking last-minute hotels, Clark recommends Priceline, Hotwire and QuikBook to land those deals.
