Can staying the weekend get me a cheaper ticket?

Staying the weekend at your destination, like Santa Barbara, usually means lower airfare since most people fly during this time. Good thing to tell your boss if you have a business trip -- wink-wink.

Why travel during the off-peak season?

Shoulder or off-peak seasons are when most vacationers aren't flying to certain locations. So when it's cold, most people head to warmer places like the Caribbean, Mexico, Hawaii, etc., just like the birds (they had it figured out). But during the summer months, you'll find that Europe gets busy. You can usually save on your ticket when you fly when everyone else isn't.
