Completely unhelpful without the codes used to get the rate.

Alamo - Midsize - 5/5 - 5/12 - Total $124.45

We are going to be renting similar to your dates; 5/5-5/11.
Using every promo/coupon code out there, the best I got for a midsize at Alamo is $162.00 with all fees and taxes.
May I ask how you got such a great deal?

I got this rate for a minivan from Dollar for 10 days.....$458.31
Do you think I can find cheaper? I've been searching but so far this deal seems to be the best.

In reference to the PP as to how helpful or not, my post was, without stating codes. The OP wanted to know what deal (Price) you had for the month of May. And that was what I had stated.

In so far as the price I received, that was booked back in early February and not available now.

A few days ago I scored a Minivan for 2 weeks with Advantage (no codes)...$480 everything included I had almost given up on rechecking....thought for sure my $533 with Thrifty was unbeatable..then again I thought my $582 with Budget was and my previous $682 was....always pays to never give up

I don't know your dates but you can try Budget using BCD Number x474200 (travelocity public code) and ecoupon MUWZ023 for $25.00 off which will be applied against total on checkout.

May 10-17 Mid size SUV total including tax 271.87

SUNPROMO and AD6974JDM

You can get a minivan for the same price.

May 7-15 using Alamo codes:
SUNPROMO and AD6974JDM
for a Mini-van is $765!
I must be doing something wrong!

I see what's wrong. You're trying for the 8 passenger mini van and the code is only good for the 7 passenger.

I got an economy car for alamo for May 8 - 15th (7days) for 150.86
using a 20% off code of 7014667 and $25.00 of weekly rental of AD674JDM
I hope this helps any last minute renters.

rie's mom:
I'm trying for the 7 passenger mini-van-
Is it listed elsewhere? (furher down the page?)
I am also picking up at MCO and dropping at TPA.
Maybe that's the problem...

 

[jkelly86]

Yep-
The rate isn't good for one way.
Sorry to bother you with it!

For a weekly mini-van rental, the best deal I could find (for 9 day rental) was $373 including all taxes and fees.

Thrify
Promo code 2FL4M (1st day of rental must be on/before May 22)

That code should also work for Dollar. Its a code posted on their website.

Code 7014667 give me the best discount, but I want to be sure I'm able to use it. Did it come directly off Alamo's site?

 

[Snoella]

When I googled the code 7014667, several sites say that it is expired. What rate did it give you?

 

[frannn]

I used the above code (that I asked about) with the Ent double upgrade coupon, for 11 days and change, for a standard size. My total with Costco was 272, so this saves 13. I Googled the code and it said it was from Alamo, from 2009. Maybe someone here has used it recently?
