Cheap car rental $14 a day/Priceline

[Lucky4me]

I got this through a Priceline bid. Intermediate car- Avis

I could have got a full size for $19 a day
or a premium for $22 a day.

Lowest price I could find on Avis other than this was $186 + taxes and fees.

14 is really good!!!! Nice job. How did you know what you could have "won" other than that? IE: full size 19.00 per day?
And...........when are you going?

Gail, they had a check box that said I could upgrade at those prices. I chose no as an Oldsmobile Alero is good enough for my DD and I. I imagine someone could bid at those prices and car types and have success if they're going around the same time I am. (But you never know with PL, sometimes there is no rhyme or reason to their bidding process.)

We are heading out January 25th! Coming back on Feb. 1.

I also was able to snag a non stop flight with Airtran for under $150 RT.

I'm staying with sis in a Grand Villa at OKW in exchange for a little babysitting while we're there. I'm making out like a bandit!

Sue,
Yes, yes you are. Good for you!!!!! We are going on 2/1/03 and have a full size EA for 156. for the week total.
You are correct, there is no rhyme or reason to PL.
We did get one night at the Renaissance World Gate for 56.00 via priceline.

Our airfare with SWA is 333.00 for two rt with SWA. I think we did very well also.

I hope you have a great time!!!!

Gail, was that car through PL?

The hotel where you are staying is supposed to be gorgeous. Nice way to start your vacation. $56 is a great bid.

Looks like we'll be passing each other in the airport.

(I'll try not to have all the trees chopped down while I'm there, okay? )

Lucky,
Nope the car was with an AARP code and a 15.00 coupon I found on the internet.

LOL, I appreciate the fact that you won't have the trees hacked up!!!

I have heard the Reniassance is beautiful, but, hard to find.
The bid was 45.00, they added those pesky taxes and PL's fee. to make it 56. (plus change).

I'll say hi as we pass in the airport.
