You'd also be surprised at how much leeway the person at the front desk has with your rate. Sometimes just calling and asking if they can do any better can get you a lower rate. I've had as much as $70 knocked off the nightly rate.
You shouldn't write personal emails at work that you wouldn't want your boss to see. Everyone knows that they can look at your email because they tell you so when you're hired.

There are two more of your comments so just read more.
I do use coupons. I also print out coupons from a couple of websites and use those as well. A good way to get coupons is to go the websites of brands that you use regularly and sign up and you'll get coupons in the mail.
I started saving January 1st! $10.00 a week transferred from my checking to my ING "Christmas Fund" savings account. By the time Christmas rolls around I'll have over $500 to spend on gifts.

7They offer savings accounts, CD, IRAs, etc. Because they are an online bank, they overhead is lower and they are able to offer higher interest rates and options.
