Please can somebody tell me I'm not going mad?

I followed the tip Re:- cookies (thanks ;)) and no surprises this time...price stayed the same no matter how many times I checked it.
On another matter, the "budget" airlines fairly hike up the prices from June onwards just in time for the kids going their holidays! Now that is another classic RIP-OFF:sneaky:

I think you will find that all airlines, travel agents and Holiday Centres do the same. Supply and demand, we demand they supply nice higher prices.:)

You can't cheat the system I'm afraid... no matter what the urban legend says. If the price goes up - you pay the higher price. If the price goes down - you pay the higher price. :D
