Hi guys
I am going to WDW September 27 - 30 and noticed that the base rate went down on my ressie. I had already booked at a lower rate, but for those of you who didn't, check it out. You may save a few bucks.:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
Keep watching, it may go down again!

I checked the site and my base rate is the same. Maybe I just got lucky and had a low base rate to begin with. I booked a full size from 9/28 - 10/1 and my base rate is $29.44 per day.
Thank you for posting - I'm sure it will help someone save $$! :)

My base rate (for four day rental) was $43.99 originally then it went down to $41.99. I rebooked. Then it went back up to $43.99. Now it is at $41.99 again. After my discounts and taxes, I am paying $138.36.

Wow - when are you renting? We have a 4 day rental in Nov. With my Disney club discount - and the internet LBV discount coupon i got from Mousesavers.com, our rate from Thurs night to Mon noon is $95.80. This rate made our choice between a rental and a limo pickup easy to make. :bounce:

I'm renting at the end of September. Is your $98 before taxes? The rate I quoted was after taxes. Also, yours may be less if you are renting for 4 1/2 days - you get a better rate for 5 days. I sure would like your rate!

My rate is about the same for November --
9 days total price (including tax and other crap) = 171.37
so it's about $19 a day
I used the Disney Club contract code and the free day coupon

The difference between the beginning of November and end of November (not Thanksgiving) is significant. We were going to go for 4 days in mid-November and found that $95 rate. Had to change plans to 11/29 - 12/3 and we're at $135. Maybe it'll come down yet.

We are going third week of Sept and our base rate actually went UP from $124/wk to $132/wk. Sure glad I reserved when I did, now I just have to make sure I remember to bring my ressie!!!

We have reserved a car from 11/29 - 12/11 (12 days) for $223.22.
That's including taxes etc!!! I'm very happy with that rate but always
watching for other coupons and ways to make it lower. My goal is to be
under $200.00 but not sure I'll get that. Our base rate is $124.00 per week
and $20.00 per extra day. But I do have DC discount of 45.00 and a US bank
visa discount of $20.00.

Mary - could you please tell me how you were able to get a great rate? I'm shopping for the same time frame and using the DC and coupon, I was able to get 132.02 base, totaling 263.74. Using the capital one promo, it's 278.10.
Thanks-

0zzz17,
I plugged in your dates and Disney Club contract number and a Disney Club coupon and came up with:
Time & Distance 1 Week @ 132.02 132.02
Extra - Time & Distance 5 Day @ 22.00 110.00
Base Rate ___________ 242.02
Less Discounts:
Discount -48.40
Disney Connection -15.09
SubTotal ___________ 178.53
Add Surcharges & Taxes: (subject to change)
Concession Fee Recov Chrg 9.8 Pct 18.97
Fl Schrg/tire&bat Fee 2.05 Usd/dy 24.60
Fla License Fee .41 Usd/day 4.92
State Tax (6.0%) 13.62
Fftxrsu (0.0%) 0.72
Total Estimate ___________ $241.36
I'm not sure what you are doing wrong but that is what I came up with using the dates you said you'd be there (Nov 29 - Dec 11) and with the Disney Club contract number and one of the Disney coupons. The base rate is now $132. vs. Mary's $124. also she has a coupon for $20 vs. the Disney coupon is only for $15.
Hope this helps you!
