Kenny I used
BCD X474200

coupon MUPZ044

It was for Budget not Dollar

Suevee - I think the code/coupon posted above that you gave Kenny are for Budget, because I have a reservation with them.

suevee · 02-08-2013, 05:31 PM

You are right it was Budget...my Dollar one was to high...

Thanks for the Alamo code!

I can only use Alamo since I only have a debit card. A Visa Debit card which I'm pretty sure counts for this promotion.

Did you book with this and get a good deal?

If you hear more on if the Visa Debit can be used, can you post the information? We're in the same situation. If i find any more information, i'll post as well. Thanks!

Any other Alamo Codes out there?

fitzpa · 02-11-2013, 02:18 PM

Does anyone have a code that doesn't require a Saturday night stay?

ethanwa · 02-12-2013, 08:44 PM

Just be aware that code MUPZ044 for Budget is an AARP discount ($40/weekly). I am unsure if they will require proof that you are a member, as I have never used that code, but just be aware.

lovingthemouse · 02-12-2013, 08:48 PM

Thanks Ethan - I am an AARP member, and heard of the coupon on their website.

n2mm · 02-13-2013, 07:37 AM

Are there any coupons for National out yet? I need one for the end of April (30) and the rental is longer than 5 days. I know there's one for the shorter stay, but have not found one for a longer stay. I prefer National and have found the rates to stay high now than in the past. Even my last rental for January was about $100 higher than past Januarys, so every little extra off helps. My second choice is Alamo, but they are the same price as National. In the past the rates would get better as the date approached, but that doesn't seem to happen much anymore. I know we probably won't see anything decent until at least after Easter week. But I still check daily.

OK...what's the scoop on PayLess Car Rental @ MCO?
We've used a few different "big name" renters, but I don't know nuttin' 'bout PayLess.

Any issues...they are significantly less for my rental period in late April.

Yesterday I booked an Alamo mid size while signed into my alamo insiders account for 177.60 pick up is in ft Myers on 4/6 drop off in Orlando on 4/15

Was that the "upgrade" visa code? This is our first time using National and I did join the Emerald Club, but I wasn't sure if I would be able to rent a compact with upgrade coupon to get the midsize you need to use the emerald aisle.

alc571 · 02-17-2013, 08:55 AM

I'm subscribing, too! We are looking for any car from Apr 14-22. Cheapest I can find is through Costco. Economy for $287.35 all in.

I'm not finding anything out there! In fact, rates for Orlando rentals seems to be going even higher than before. I really hope these last 30-45 days show some decent sales or I'll be going with the 2 one ways to Port Canaveral that I booked in May!!

Word of Caution with Alamo's New Website Setup

It's nice that Alamo re-did their website the boxes are bigger and easier to see.

However, now if you're clicking to their website's link from another website-like BJ's Travel Services or Entertainment Book's, it doesn't give you the option to login into your Insider's account therefore stacking that discount with BJ's or Entertainment book.

I found that I had to scroll down to the bottom and click on site map to get that option.

Then-

No matter what you do after that, you can't drop the BJ's discount to try another. I closed out the window. Rebooted the computer. Onlyu cleaning the cookies does it.

It also displays your previously booked reservations after you log into your Insider's Account. I would say the chances of finding a better deal in that instance are not good. Seems like they're tracking people trying to re-book for a better deal.

From now on I'll not log into Insider's (the discount is 10%, it's easy to guess the savings) until I'm ready to reserve. And I'll be cleaning cookies in between discount codes.

Yes, they have a reputation for quoting one thing and having it be significantly higher when you pick up or drop off. Several complaints on these boards and warnings. You could do a search to read about it. I wouldn't do it.

That's great! Wish I was flying into Ft. Myers! Tampa's probably not that bad either. Just Orlando!
