November 2016 Car Rental Rate Watch

[laughinplace199]

Hi all, we are going to WDW over Thanksgiving. We currently have a minivan booked through Alamo for $370 using a BJ's code and an Alamo coupon. Since it's a holiday week, I'm not holding my breath for a better deal, but here's hoping!

We got Alamo minivan for $220 including taxes for Nov 4th - 11th.

Wow - that's a great deal! Do you recall any codes or coupons you used?

We booked ours for thanksgiving week months ago. I have 2 minivans reserved thru Alamo 11/19-26 for $189. It's substantially more now! Keep checking. You may get lucky...

Joining in. I right now have a few rentals on hold. Best deal so far is a Fullsize at Alamo 11/12-11/18 for $123.61 Pretty darn happy with that

I need to rent from Nov 25 to Dec 5. So far, I haven't found anything less than $325-$350 with the taxes, etc added on. Last year I did the same time frame for about $220.

We are staying 11/25 to 12/1. Trying to decide if I want to return at car care toward the end of our trip or drop off back at the airport
Like the above poster I'm finding rates in the 350 range for midsized car. Hoping they go down as we get closer.

It's almost always less expensive to pick up and drop off at the airport. Dropping at a different location sometimes adds an extra charge.

We currently have a minivan booked through Alamo for $550 for 10 days -- starting 11/29-12/09. That rate is through Alamo!

After playing with the numbers I agree. Booked midsize SUV for $321

Tried Keacc alamo code but can't get anything good yet.

I signed up for Autoslash, which emails you if they find a deal better than what you already have. They've found a few better rates, but they're with Advantage and EZ, and I'm not comfortable with either of those companies. Plus, they're only a few dollars better - not a savings significant enough to switch from Alamo.

Maybe there will be better deals once the dates are closer, but being a holiday week, I'm not counting on it.

Alamo via Costco out of Tampa. 11/11 to 11/19 midsize car (Corolla) for $227. MCO prices were about 10% more when I made the reservation 2 weeks ago.

Alamo through Costco: Standard size, November 5-16 $328.88-- will be using Priceline and Hotwire closer to my trip to see if I can get a better price.

Using these codes will get you that standard size car from Alamo for $256 including taxes:

I'm a newbie to codes and such--where would I go to add the codes? ON the Costco site or . . . . . . ? Thanks in advance for your help!
