Check your reservations again! Mine was down again this morning. Yesterday I was at $102 for a mid-size. Today the midsize was $76 and standard was $84. I re-booked our january week rental, upgraded to the standard and was still down another $18.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
I checked again today and down another $14. I'm at $104 for a compact Jan 27-Feb 4! I used the insiders ID and the $40 coupon.

Now if only I could get my parents' reservation down. Theirs is $207 for Jan 27 to Jan 31. Ouch!!

I was able to upgrade from a compact and still save $5. I'm at $85 for 1/29 to 2/4 for a midsize.

Just rebooked at $86 for a midsize! If it goes much lower I will definitely upgrade to a full!

Looks like Expedia.ca has some good deals right now. I think you can still book there even with a US address because I just had a look and at billing I can change country to US and input US address. You are charged the full amount at booking. You can get your parents a compact from Jan 27 - 31 for $100 with Dollar or $108 with Budget inc taxes.

I have a question....should I be concerned about this message at the top of the screen at all? I used the e-coupon AD4027JDO and the Costco ID...up until now I've been ignoring it but it occurred to me maybe I shouldn't anymore

You have entered a coupon that may be required to be presented at the time of rental. Please read the terms and conditions of the coupon before selecting your vehicle to ensure your coupon will apply to your reservation. If you are using an upgrade coupon, please select the car category you wish to upgrade from.

I am so frustrated! My rate is just not moving. The best I've found for a minivan 1/27-2/4 is $315 before taxes. I have never paid that much. Anyone else having any luck with the price of a van?

Try Budget BCD Number x474200 (travelocity public code) and E-Coupon MUGZ029 for $30 off. Total inc taxes $329.27 after coupon is applied when return minivan.

Thanks. It comes up as $415 after tax for me. My return time is 7 hours after my pick-up, so I'm guessing that is what's killing me.

Not to worry, it is an Alamo coupon and electronic, no need to have a coupon for this.

Thank you all!!! I got a full size and a compact for $130 and $85 for Jan 20-29!! My Dh is arriving later that night so if I get lucky on the Full size and can get a minivan then we can cancel his reservation and if not - we will have two cars instead of a minivan!

Just wondering--will these codes work at all for Feb. for Presidents week?

You may want to try Payless (shuttle required). I assumed 10AM pickup and 5PM dropoff for additional 7hrs so I get $331.95 inc taxes.

We need a full size from Jan 22 to Feb 2 from Sanford airport and the cheapest we've found is $388 with taxes. I'm starting to get scared. Please tell me it'll go down.

Run a mock reservation and see.

Thanks for this! I didn't even consider Payless.

I just got a full size from alamo for jan 24th-31 for $92. Pickup ad dropoff at mco.

I used car rental savers.com

Not a bad deal!

 

[danielephant]

i am so overwhelmed....i just got quoted 340 total for a standard! Yikes!

That is w/o a coupon code...but i am having a horrid time sorting through these posts to find the codes

 

[danielephant]
