Should I book now?!

[ROBEAR84]

I need some opinions please!

We are no longer going to DLP this year 1) as the 30% wasn't enough when we were going to book earlier this year and 2) as I now have to leave my job due to children starting school in September we'd have had to cancel now anyway!

We want to go next May/June half term now and I have a price Sun 3rd to Thursday 7th which is £568 for the four of us (little ones going free) this seems like a great price to be but it's only 15% off which puzzles me! Are they putting the prices down? should I wait for better? This year the best price I could get for November (may half term was the same) was about £680 but that was 30% off! We paid £450 the year before!! ETA: £450 I think may have been 40% off though. All similar times of year as same prices as May half term at the time.

The prices seem so inconsistent! Help!! please

i know how you feel, as i couldnt decide wether to book ahead for april yet or not, we did in the end for several reasons

1.the price was one i was happy to pay so have just decided i will not bother re-pricing or going onto see how much it is closer to the time

2. I know the exact price and can therefore budget accordingly (infact we paid in full on a 0% credit card and have set a direct debit up to pay a set amount off each month ensuring that the balence is cleared in pleanty of time

3. knowing its booked gives us something to look forward to

4. I book online using a cash back site (either use quidco or top cash back) so get money back on the price we paid - when we booked there was an increased cash back rate for a limited time on top cash back (so instead of the average 4% to 5% cash back on the total price, we should get 7.5%)

i concur with what anna has said. i have just booked for 4th june and am paying £552 so im quite happy with that price. the price may well be cheaper in future months but its booked now and we are all excited!
