southwest.com. >> reporter: there, stacy and mike hit the jackpot. but traveling on tuesdays, they can find a round-trip fare for $192 per ticket, including two free checked bags and carry-ons. you just shaved about $120 off the cost of every ticket. >> no fees. that is a no-brainer. >> reporter: once on the ground, another tip. membership has privileges. you can often get lower rates on hotels and rental cars through memberships with discount warehouses, aaa, and even aarp. >> i'm 32 years old. i'm a member. >> reporter: that little tip puts $100 back in their pocket. ready to book? >> we're ready. >> yeah. >> we're ready. >> reporter: for "good morning america," rebecca jarvis, abc news, new york. >> rebecca strikes again. more great tips. experts say there are credit card signups that offer big mile bonuses. mike and stacy found some that would give them air and hotel

shipping to ensure delivery. by christmas eve. >> you could pay over $100 for a small package. >> reporter: the deadline for two-day shipping, tuesday, december 22nd. one-day, december 23rd. but that doesn't mean midnight of those days. most retailers have a cutoff between noon to 2:00 p.m. eastern. so shop early. the next option, ship to store. you have probably done this before. buy online, and pick up at customer service. >> you don't have to wait in lines. the package is there waiting for you. and when you get to the store, you can make sure the deal isn't better there. >> reporter: something new this year that makes it even easier. a free service called curb side. it lets you order on your phone from many retailers, then schedule a pickup. i pull in and then fire up the app. they bring everything i ordered right to the car. i don't even have to get out. >> welcome to target curb side. may i see your i.d.?

>> thank you so much. >> have a great one. >> reporter: that was convenience. if even a trip to the curb is too much, delivers to your in a lot of cases, that delivery costs just $5 extra. if you're lucky enough to be in one of them, this might save christmas. retailers announcing longer hours. some staying open round the clock to give people opportunities to shop even if they, themselves, are working long hours this week. macy's every store open late. check listings. j.c. penney, open at 8:00 a.m. through christmas eve. toys "r" us open from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. some open around the clock through christmas eve. kohl's open 179 straight hours. from 7:00 a.m. december 17th through 6:00 p.m. on christmas eve. and get my own shopping done.
