    I went on a last minute deal holiday a couple of years ago. I found mine by looking at the offers available in the windows of my local travel agents. If you don't mind having your accomodation allocated on arrival you can get some quite good deals. I'd also recommend buying your insurance on the internet as it's far cheaper than the ones offered by the travel agents (unless they throw it in for free of course!)
