Do the research on the flights, go all the way through to find out your final cost--sometimes a one way flight is cheaper, sometimes a round trip (and not using the return) is cheaper. It varies. Sometimes it even depends WHEN your return flight is, so look at that as well. Try booking it for a 'cheap fly' time. so. not in the middle of the summer or any major events, for example.
Also, one way flights (depending who you're flying with) usually have the ability to change the date of your ticket without losing money, or just refunding back your money (it's a useful tidbit from certain carriers BECAUSE of it being a one-way flight).
That's it, really. I don't think it matters if you ticket is already booked, if you can get it refunded. It's really up to you whether you purchase a ticket or not--just be sure it IS refundable!
