As you may have guessed from the post title, I think it can be pretty hard, unless you are already working in the travel industry, to estimate just what a vacation is worth. However, rather than trying to figure out whether an individual travel agent is charging too much for your dream holiday, you can now BID for cheap vacations!

SkyAuction allows you to place a bid on the holiday you like with a maximum bidding value, to ensure you get the best value Vacation Deals. In a similar way to a famous general auction site (whose name rhymes with bidet), you can also find many holidays that have set Buy Now prices, so if you do not want to risk losing out on a specific deal, you can simply purchase there and then. The process to start finding your hols is really simple, though I think the citizens of Ireland would prefer not to be included as residents of Britain! (I’m assuming the site is actually referring to Northern Ireland).

Anyway, check out the site, and see what you think…
