Christmas car rental deal at Budget!

[HappyCamperToo]

Check for the code on Mousesavers. I just lowered my $550 2-week minivan rental by switching from dollar to budget. It's now $475 after tax after using mousesavers code and entertainment book $25 off coupon. Best part--Budget won't charge me extra driver fee for DH to drive--saving us even more $$ Yippee!!!

(I'm open to going even lower ---can anyone top this deal???)

Um, in the 2007 Entertainment book? www.entertainment.com - this sounds like one of those instances where you NEED the actual coupon, not just a code.

Yep. The person at Budget said they don't reflect the coupon on your reservation until you present it at the counter. I called because it wasn't showing on the ressie, and that's what I was told. BTW, they'll let me use the coupon, supposedly, even though the BCD # on the coupon is different than the one from mousesavers. (Using the BCD# on the coupon more than doubled the price!)

The entertainment book was $20 through a school fundraiser, but I think it's about $25 if you buy it online. The rental car coupons are good throughout the country, but the dining and other ones are area-specific, so you could think about whether or not you want one for your local area, or for the orlando area--which ever you'd get more use out of. We bought it because there was a Dick's Sporting Good's coupon in it and I was going to buy something there anyway, so all the rest of the coupons are now "free" for us.

I just checked Budget again for my days (I know, I'm compulsive) and the price is now $1300! Either it was a glitch to discount rentals over the holiday and they fixed it, or there were only a limited number of reservations at that price. Either way, THANK YOU MARY AT MOUSESAVERS for keeping us advised of current codes!!!!!
