I think the deal hunting they are refering to is the practice of buying 2 return tickets and then using the first set to get to your destination and the second to get back. This way you can get the cheap tickets that span weekend stays but instead travel on a, say, Tuesday and come home on Wednesday of the same week.
Even though you bought two complete return fares, it's still cheaper most of the time that buying one return ticket during a business week. They are trying to fleese the business traveller to subsidize the vacation traveller. I think you probably get both sets of airmiles from buying 2 sets as well
