Our family enjoys an annual March trip to WDW. We always rent a car from National w/ EA. Last trip we got a minivan for the price of an intermediate. At the end of Oct., DH & I are scheduled for an adults-only 4 day stay at BW. We weren't going to rent a car. Last week, when we started discussing PS, we realized that we want several dinners at resorts, i.e. Calif. grille, Jiko etc. We also thought about our last day w/ an early check-out & a late flight. So I started on Friday to investigate National. The prices seemed fair, but I wanted to check coupons that I had at home before reserving. What a mistake, the coupons are only good until 9/30 (DC) and the rates jumped. (i.e. $143 inc. tax for 5 days-DC) Now I really can't decide whether to rent or not. Without a car, we would probably take a taxi or Tiffany to & from the airport, tough it out with Disney transportation for dining and plan to store the bags on the last day. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The disney vacations coupon is good until April 1, 2002.
It is located at: http://disney.go.com/vacations/travel/national_pop.html and gives a discount equal to 1 day's rental. Also worth investigating are: http://www.travelcouponsonline.com/best.html

If you don't care what agency you get, try Priceline. It looks like a good way to save some money. Also Mousesavers.com has some great codes to save you some money.

I just went to Mousesavers. I really like the way it lays out all the info for ground travel. It will really help us in making the decision that is best for this "special" trip.
