I Think I Got A Good Deal w/National!

[JKLLady]

I just booked National for 10 days for $158.00 for an intermediate, end of June/beginning of July; I think this seems like a good rate, but I'd like some feedback.
Mousesavers had an offer for free Emerald Club membership, so I joined; then, I used their printable Entertainment coupon & the AARP rate (hubby's a member).

So, what does everyone think........good or not?

 

[debster812]

I'd be happy with that rate. I think you done good, kid!

I'd keep this reservation, and check back every couple of days or so. If the rate goes down, book a NEW reservation, and then cancel your old one.

But I think this is a pretty good rate.

Good rate! Keep it but keep checking!

Decent rate. I would try the Priceless contract ID (6600330) instead of the AARP code. I would venture to bet that your rate lowers. Combine it with the $20 off coupon.

I am at 128.71 for 9 days in mid June. Intermediate (EA).

I used the priceless & entertainment book coupon for end of August 9 days & got $109 (including taxes, etc.) for a full size. Keep checking - but sounds like you got good deal -have a great vaca!!

I booked for 9 days in October back in March and have been checking weekly. The best I have done so far is $189 for an intermediate. I hope the prices come down as we get closer. I used priceless and the $20 off BJs coupon.

Hey all you w the great prices. I just booked national and cold not get lower than 189.41!!! grrrr. used priceless and 20. cpn. for intermediate. It is now just about midnite and I have to give up for now. Did get the price to go from223.94 to 192.05 then 189.41. The last two were the same codes, no changes and the taxes changed. Go figure. Any advise? Really want to be around 150. for 7days. Thanx.

I'd book a reservation in case the rates don't fall just to protect yourself. I booked,cancelled and rebooked at least 5 times for my June rental. The prices for a 11 day minivan ranged from a high of around $550 to the low of $285 (total cost). If you're patient and check periodically you'll probably get a better rate. BTW this was using Priceless and the Entertainment @20 coupon.

 

[Keokagal]

Thanx EdDome. I will keep watching and checking.

I'd be real happy with that-I'm renting the last week in July for 8 days(23-31). The lowest I can get for intermediate is 206(tax included) or 215 total for full sized. I used the priceless code and 20 coupon too! I keep checking, but I can't seem to get anywhere near 124!!! When everyone posts rates like 124 or 109 are these with taxes and fees? I'm jealous

 

[dudspizza]

My rate for 9 days is 127.81 all included, June 14-23, but remember rental car places are trying to compete with Magical Express.

I paid 184.10 all in last August, so the rates right now are not that typical.

Both are for intermediate, EA at national.

I just checked rates for a week in June and got 106 total!. I am still at 206 for when I want to go in July. I am now hoping whatever special they are running in June gets carried over in July.

Keep a close eye on them.

My friends have a full size for 100.14 all in for a week in June. We got them that rate a few months ago.

Lady, I got the same $158 rate for 10 days. I used the continental code and the $20 coupon. I'm very happy with that rate!

 

[luvdisney14]

What is the continental code and what code do I use for 20.00 off. I never used national car rental before.

 

[janets]

June 17-21 and it dropped again. We're paying just over $100 for a 5 day (considered a weekly rate) full size rental with the priceless code and ent. coupon. I'm paying about $108 total for the same car class for a week in November. Just checked the November rates again and they are at $193 for the same thing. Glad I booked when I did for that one.
