We've always found the Disney Club to be the best discount overall, but that is now not an option. I was going to buy an Entertainment book for Orlando, mainly to get the Baskerville's coupon and possible rental car discounts. But, I won a Baskerville's 50% off from Restaraunt.com, so that is not necessary. Last year I bought the book with hopes of using Jungle Jim's coupons, etc, and only used Baskerville's. Anyway, I already have a Costco membership, and was thinking if the rental car discounts are the same, I will probably not get the Entertainment Book. Anybody have any idea?
 
It just so happens the last few days I have been price shopping with my entertainment coupons versus mousesavers & other coupons I have been able to come across. I do not have any savings club cards.

I would be happy to compare for you with the coupons available from my book(Orlando) if you wish.

The book offers discounts on : Avis, Budget, National, Alamo, Hertz, & Enterprise.

BTW, the best deal I have found is Avis. I used the upgrade coupon from full to premium for $478.46 complete with taxes. I can also use a coupon ( also entertainment book) in conjuntion for a free full tank of gas.

$478.00 is for 14 days rental!!!
 
Hi,

I just booked my rental car thru Alamo and used the Entertainment Book Discount for 1 free day. It was $160/week for a full size car minus your free day. The estimated total w/ taxes included was $180.00 for 8 days.

Go to Mousesavers.com for additional discount codes. The cheapest I could find with a discount code was $207.00 for 8 days including the taxes. That was the Walmart code for Alamo.

I'm not familiar w/ Costco offers so I don't know if those prices beat them. Hope this helps!

i checked out every code (ent book, airlines, mousesavers, etc) last year, and costco beat them all (paid $185 wk for minivan).
unfortunately, their current "travel deals mag" only goes thru spring 2004, & we're going in august..........so i made "back-up" ressies & will switch if costco has a lower price.

Unfortunately my trip is not till July. Alot of the codes on mousesavers and rentalcodes.com expire before my trip.

I am wondering if I will have good luck finding a better deal for my trip between mousesavers and entertainment codes??? I know summer is a more in demand time for rentals.
 
Try rentalcodes.com

I used a combination of stuff from rentalcodes and mousesavers.
 
I got a great deal using the DIS's code for budget- better than mousesavers, breezeway, cotsco etc. Of course I was having a hard time since it is just a week before I need the car and it's spring break. I dont know if the rates will be as favorable during non-peak times::yes::
 
Your info was helpful to me! We are going in Sept. and I was in the process of ordering the Ent. Book when I say your info.

I think I will wait and look around for codes a little harder!

BTBluejeans - We had a better deal for an SUV in Sept from a combination of codes from mousesavers and rentalcodes.com. Although I found with National (as mousesaver did warn), you have to keep clearing your cookies to check different rates. I got one for $327 for 9 days while most everyone else for an SUV gave me around $400.

I tried the Alamo one for Costco and came up with $350-ish.
