Can you save while traveling during the off-peak season?

Winter is prime for Mexico and the Caribbean because of its warm weather, as well as ski and snowboard destinations like the Colorado Rockies. During autumn, Northern California, the Pacific Northwest, and New England draw visitors. Flying during the off-peak seasons to certain locations can mean extra money in your wallet -- yes, please!
