I used to do this a lot when I flew for business, as you would often get screwed flying into airports that were hubs, such as Minneapolis or SFO. I could fly from MKE to SEA via MSP for maybe $300. To fly to from MKE to MSP might be $500+. We would often book trips that overlapped to do this

[MBZ] OT Airlines: Why de do dat?

Just booked a set of tix to go to Italy later this year. Tix were $573, flying from Miami FL to Rome, with a layover in Charlotte each way. Flights are all on AA. Miami is about a ten-hour drive from my house. Charlotte is about five hours. If I try to book the flight from Charlotte, and skip
