Dollar

I have found that Dollar and Avis have better rates. With the different promo codes and on line booking I have only used National once in my 15 visits to Disney. Our normal rental is 9 - 10 days.

Dollar and Avis are also at the airport.

You can get some better rates on Hertz, Alamo, etc if you like taking the shuttle buses. I think it takes to much time.

I certainly keep a check on the websites.

I have always had the best rates from National, but then, my husband is an Emerald Isle customer, so that might be why. In December we got a mid size for 10 days with a $79/week rate.

I've got no brand loyalty at all -- I check every company and take the cheapest. (After all, a dollar saved is a dollar to spend at WDW :) ) As soon as I've made my DVC ressie, I get online & check prices, and reserve the cheapest. About every month I check again. If I find a cheaper deal, I cancel the original and make another reservation. The last month I check at least weekly. On one vacation, the prices were dropping daily, and my best price was the day before we left :D

It helps to start looking as soon as your room is booked, since usually the prices start going up about 6 months in advance. My May ressie at Sanford Airport (made in Sept 00) is $202 for 12 days, but the current prices are in the mid-$300 and up range.
