Priceline car rental from Sanford

[Piglet'sPal]

Anyone have any luck getting a good deal through Priceline for a car out of Sanford? We are going in December and are hoping to get a good deal!

Priceline *does* appear to offer cars at SFB, but it's probably too early to get a good Priceline rate. Plus, your flights may change and changing a PL reservation is a PITB.

They seem to be a lot higher than other places for our August trip. They also don't do the name your own price for Sanford.

I didn't think they did either, bit I just did a partial test bid with SFB as my airport of choice.

Did it work? I kept getting an error message

I thought I had heard something like that. I will be curious to know if you can use it or not.

Ok, well it let me put it in, but my bid was too low Now I have to wait 24 hours before I can put a new one in. $18/day is too low for a midsize car, $20 is too low for a full size. I can play their game and wait

Thanks! Sanford must be new for Priceline since I looked at it a month ago and the bidding wasn't an option.

You can Name Your Own Price at SFB. It just comes up as Central Florida Regional (SFB). Haven't had any luck accepting my price yet, still trying.

You can bid again with another email address. Hasn't helped me though, still didnt' accept my bid yet.

Thanks for all of the replies!! I will be sure and try this as it gets closer to our trip time.
