My old way of booking flights was costing me a fortune

I used to just pick dates and buy the first ticket I saw... now I use a calendar view on Google Flights to find the cheapest days. Saved $150 on a trip to Chicago by leaving on a Tuesday instead of Friday. What's your go-to site for finding cheap flights?

That calendar view trick is a total game changer.

Honestly, I felt like a genius when I first tried it. Then I realized I'd been looking at a mess of sticky notes for three months like some kind of cave person. My whole planning system was just a sad list on a torn envelope. Switching to calendar view actually showed me where my time was going, which was mostly into staring at my phone.
