Frustrated with rental car prices here in June

[zulaya]

Ugh. I leave in around 10 days and the rental car prices are still kind of crummy.

Does anyone have a good code for National for early-mid-June? I've been to MouseSavers and Rentalcodes.com and tried what I qualify for. Any other sources I should try?

Thanks.

I don't know. They don't look too bad compared to mid August! What are your exact dates and how big of a car do you need? I just checked Hotwire for 6/11 - 6/18 and I get $14.95 per day for a Mid Size (or $170 including all taxes). You should be able to shave a bit off that price on Priceline. I would start bidding at $9 for a Midsize (60% of Hotwire's $15 per day) and then go up a $1 every 24 hours.

We do not have a credit card, debit card only. Does Hotwire and Priceline accept them?

I'm not sure. They probably do as long as it has a Visa logo on it as everything is prepaid. You'll have to go to their website and read their car rental FAQs.
