Me and friend are taking part in a camp america program this summer and are then travelling afterwards so we are VERY budgeted, esp as we are sudents. We have found a hostel for $20, which I know is very cheap, but were wondering if any1 knows of any which are a little less? We have found 1 in Vegas and a few other places but can't seem 2 find 1 for less in Dallas. Thanks alot

hostels are not that common in the US, especially TX. you can't even get a decent hotel room for less than $40 USD, so you are probably lucky, but here are some websites if you don't know about them. I look at them all the time and I have used all 3 of them for booking a bed in Europe and the British Isles. The price of the hostel will depend on the demand for that time period.
keep in mind the distance from the nearest airport. there are two major ones in the Dallas area: DFW International and Love Field;
airport codes:
DFW International = DFW
Dallas Love Field = DAL
www.hostels.com - 2 hostels in Dallas area, there is a booking fee and you will have to put down some money to pay for the room and all of it will not be refunded if you don't stay in the room. I learned that the hard way in London.
http://www.hostelbookers.com/ - 1 hostel in Irving, it's in the middle of Dallas and Fort Worth; the site has no booking fees
www.hostelworld.com - 2 hostels.
honestly, Dallas doesn't have more than 2 hostels from my basic research and you probably couldn't do better than $20 per bed - BUT
Dallas has lots of shopping, plenty of things to see and it is a whole lot cheaper than NY or LA. Rent a car, drive to Fort Worth and you can see cowboys and the historic area. Go to Southfork Ranch and see where Dallas was actually filmed. The Dallas area has a lot to offer and I hope you keep that in mind when making your decision.
