Hawaii Entertainmet Book
 
Is the Hawaii Entertainment book worth purchasing for a trip to Maui?

When are you going?

At $35-$38 plus $5 shipping, it probably is not worth it as there are not many coupons for Maui.

But, because the coupons have an expiration date of Nov 1, they reduce the price. Right now they are about $25 including free shipping.

By mid-May, they are about $15 including shipping. At $15 it does not take much to get your $$ back.

There are also many national coupons, mostly for hotels & cars. So if you do a lot of traveling, it may pay off there. You can also look at rates for Maui hotels & cars.

An alternative is their free trial offer (if they still have it). You can print 3 free coupons. You have to use the coupons within 15 days of printing. And if you have a 2nd email address.........

We are going to Maui in March, so I thought at $30.00 (25 plus 5 shipping), it might be worth it. We already have our condo and car. I was thinking that the coupons might possibly be helpful for eating out and activies. Thanks for the tip on the free trial offer.

I just checked & the Hawaii book is $21 & $3 shipping.

You can also view the free brochures to see what ads/coupons are in them. The coupons aren't printable but at least you'll know what is available:
