Free Additional Driver Question

[tbrenk]

I saw on Mousesavers thta is you use the WalMart cose with Alamo, you get a free additional driver. Does it have to be a spouse? I am travelling with my SIL and her kids and it would be handy if she could be the additional driver for free.

We used Alamo at the end of August and our additional free driver was not related, just a friend - no problem as long as they are a licensed driver, over age 25.

Ok, great!!

Do you know if the Wal Mart code is only way to receive the free additional driver?

I believe so. I am also looking for free additional.

If you book Alamo through Costco (membership required, of course), the additional driver is free.

I booked The thrifty magic card code for April 19, 2008. It says free additional driver on the offer sheet but the confirm didn't show a free driver. They're usually prety good about that stuff as long as you show them some kind of print out/offer.
Good luck all,
Joe

I reserved Thirfty with that code for August. I called and asked and they said that the Magic Card code doesn't give a free additional driver.

I explained the policy to the agent and she said that it isn't Thrifty's policy.
