Budget - Question about rental rates and my Rapid Res #

Trying to book a car at TPA for 1 week beginning of April.
If I use my Rapid Res # the cost is about $250 more than if I do not use the number.
Can somebody explian why this is happening?
I made the booking at the lower rate but I'll have to wait in line with everybody else for counter service instead of being able to go directly to the car?
Thank you in advance.

When you arrive skip to the RapidRez counter with your membership card. They will process you there.

And yes, you cannot get a cheap rate using RapidRipoff on the computer :-)

It's like a little game you play. If you fool with the options and the codes, only then will you get the lowest rate. I love their little advertising message that pops up that says in effect, "if you wait till the last moment, did you know your rates will be higher?" A more false statement you could not find. It's all a little game.
