Question about weekend rental reward
Could I theoretically do something like this (without paying):
1) Book a rental Saturday 9 PM - Monday 9 PM using the weekend rental reward
2) Not show up until Sunday morning and get the car then.
I'm not sure if this would technically work according to the rules, but I don't see why they shouldn't let me do it.
Anyone?

Do you think I could get some love by calling up Avis?

I'm not sure how that's "screwing" you. They have terms that must be met. If a hotel offers a cheap $99 rate for fri/sat night, so you think you can show up weds and say "well, I only need the room for 1 night. Can I just pay 2x$99 instead of the week-day rate of $259?"
Doubt calling will get you anywhere. You don't meet the terms of the coupon (no matter how crazy/restrictive they are) so they won't be inclined to do anything for you.
