Incredible Sale at Maui Clothing Company Outlet

Every summer Maui Clothing Company's Outlet store has the blow out sale of the year. With over 10 stores on the island the outlet has a large selection of mens and womens. The sale started yesterday and it is 30% off their already marked down prices.

I purchased two $120 bathing suits for $14 each! They have shoes on sale too.

Maui Clothing Company Outlet is in the Gateway Plaza behind the Tesoro on the Piilani Highway in Kihei. (808) 875-0308

Best deals on Flights. And believe me they are hard to find!

I recently started a short term rental in a sweet condo off of Kamaole 3 beach in Kihei. Many of the emails I have been receiving from potential visitors have lamented about the cost of a plane ticket and how hard they are to find.

Here is what my research has found:

*** San Francisco people are really out of luck I found a cheaper round trip from Newark New Jersey! If you do not want to spend $1000 plus try going through Oakland where you can get a fare for $850.

*** Los Angeles people same bad deal. Try Monday July 7th or Wednesday July 9th, on Delta Flight 1477 for $889

*** Can't believe I am saying this but New Yorkers you can get $812 on United 819 from Orbitz from Newark. Sure that will not last so book quickly.

*** Seattle is consistent on Hawaiian Airlines most days for $620

*** Portland also consistent on Hawaiian at $669

***People were saying they flew to Phoenix from San Fran to catch a cheaper flight but I could only find $854 and up on Hawaiian Airlines.

***If you are flexible on the dates I recommend hotwire.com they have a great search that lets you see flights over a period of time.

The only bright spot is that farecast.com is predicting flights will go down in price.
We all hope soon.

Find a good fare? Please be sure to let us all know.
