I have not been able to find a way to enter a coupon code after many attempts.
You can't do it. You can only enter a BCD code. Just make the rez. and take the coupon with you when you rent the car. They'll accept it if it's applicable.
20% off entertainment book coupon gave me a rate of $102/week + taxes/fees for a mid size in Maui and $137 + taxes/fees for a full size in Kona. Lowest rates I've seen, except maybe at priceline (can you say 'no cancelation or changes'?).
I am going to rent a standard car for a week from TUS to PHX and input the Entertainment 20% off coupon BCD code and although it gave me a discount, it was closer to 15%.
I then found the following webpage, and although it says that one gets a 15% discount on a weekly rental, but I think mine was higher.
In my case it carries 1,500 UA miles, as well, although the inital United webpage seems to indicate only 500 UA FF miles. The clincher was that at least for my car class, there was no drop charge!!
Base cost for my 7 day rental is only $140 with the United special offer.

I've found the best discounts by using the Entertainment Book coupons.

I agree. The 20% off a weekly rental coupon has given me the best rates on my last two weekly rentals. It appears you have to hand over the coupon at check in/check out to get it to price correctly.
On the budget website I was quoted $280.00 for a weekly rental.
I waited a minute and went through the process again to see if the price would change, it didn't until the third time I tried. Now the price showed $250.00. It may be worth a second or third pass to see if the price changes when booking. F.Y.I.

Get the best Entertainment rate by double-dipping: Use the 20% discount and the $20 coupon.

I'll need a rental car in Los Angeles for one week. Do you think can you kindly email me the entertainment's Budget weekly rental discount code ? It would be very very appreciated.

Hope this helps.. VERY helpful-thank you NJUPINTHE AIR!I Am looking to rent a convertible and most of the coupons are only good up to a full size
(a PS added on 4/3/05)-UsingNJUPINTHEAIR's link(thanks again)I just reserved a convertible in FLL for less than $40 a day!And triple miles!
I completed my rental and instead of the stated 15% that I was supposed to receive over the regular rates, it came to 27.7% !!! That is why it was better than the 20% coupon from the Entertainment Book.
Now, hopefully, I will receive the 1,500 United miles for the 5 days or longer rental!
I have a 7 day intermediste rental for $159.75 base rate with BCD Rate Code W116168
www.wailuabay.com booked the res for me, and recd an budget.com email and have been able to update the res successfully. The original budget.com rate was $229.xx, so this discount is hefty. Cheaper than what Priceline would offer, and Hotwire.!
BCD code W116168 saved me a ton for Hawaii Res
