The end of the holiday season doesn't mean all the discounts are gone. So, while the big box retailers begin to reset their prices to "normal," Hilton is extending Christmas cheer through the end of January. The hotel chain is offering cuts of up to 33 percent on weekend rates in the Caribbean, Mexico, Central America and South America. The brands included are Hilton, Doubletree, Embassy Suites, Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton Inn and Homewood Suites (keep in mind that not all properties are participating, though).

As long as you book by the end of the month, you can secure the discounted pricing for any Friday, Saturday or Sunday stay throughout the rest of the year. So, instead of scrambling at the last minute for Valentine's Day, birthday or anniversary presents, get it all out of the way now. This could really take the headache out of gift-giving this year.
