CAR Rental

Hey Gang,
My friend and I are going on a trip. I was going to rent a car, but they are crazy expensive. How do you all get decent rates or coupons?

I always use Cosco. they always have deals and they throw in a extra driver for no charge. the rental company never asks for the costco card. I am not a member and never had a problem renting from the web site. It worth checking out.

got to each company site and look - but usually Thrifty, Dollar ahve better rates.

I used carrental.com I ended up with Thrifty too. I got a fullsize car for 189.00 for 7 days and that included tax.

Between carrental and priceline, I've been able to get good prices every trip. Am currently paying $302 for 17 days, starting Monday thru Priceline. More than half that is taxes.

Is your trip to LV? When are you going? We have a compact for 8 days with Alamo at the beginning of Feb. for $101 using a code from carrental.com. In LV we almost always find Alamo to be the cheapest but you have to have ID codes and coupon codes and have to check back frequently. Prices fluctuate widely from day to day. I looked at April and the cost is much higher. I agree about using Costco too.

We are deciding between Florida and Vegas

Wait a minute...according to your tripticker it's been 3 yrs + since you've been to Vegas - Whaddya mean you gotta decide between there and anywhere else!?!?
