Are you looking to escape this heat without using all of your cash? Our Smart Shopper team found a few sites that will help you save.

Momondo is a cool site that does the work for you. It searches all of the airlines, including Southwest Airlines. You can also find hotel and rental car deals. You can't book directly through the site, but it gives you everything you need to save.

Skyscanner is a good site for international travel. It's flexible for those who don't know where they want to go. So, users simply type where they’re flying from and the dates they plan to travel and the site gives all sorts of options.

Anyone interested in bed-and-breakfast locations can try bedandbreakfast.com. It gives details and let’s users search for things, like hot tubs, fireplaces all of the essential things for a trip.

VRBO it's a great site to help with finding vacation rentals. I've use this site several times and it is very easy to use.

Yapta is also a good site for searching, and it will let users know if they’ve paid too much for a ticket.

Users can just enter their flight information and the site will track the fare and let you know whether it drops. Some airlines will refund the difference.
