It appears that using discount codes may not result in discounts at all with Budget. Check out the MasterCard/Budget and Costco/Budget deals (can be found in Costco travel brochures).
No it was on a grocey bag from ralphs with all kinds of other discounts for summer.It was not a coupon and said nothing about taking the bag to the counter.

FWIW: I just glanced at a Ralphs supermarket shopping bag, and the expiration date is now 31 Dec. 2004. Says "Save up to 25%." Seems like one must try a bunch of codes to get the best rate.

You summed it all up.. it is just part of playing the Budget game. With a little work you can save $
Now that's an understatement! I haven't used Budget in a couple of years, but it is by far the cheapest of them all for my trip home to Calgary at Christmas and the Ralph's BCD worked to save me CDN45 over 4 days.
But, with that brutal site, there is no way to enter a BCD to see Ralph's rates if you log in first with your Fastbreak BCN#. You have to reserve/confirm without logging in, then call and get your BCN# attached to the rez.
And you have to call to change your profile too! What decade of the 80's are they operating in, anyway??!!
Look at the upper left area and click on "Rates and Reservations." It's to the right of the big Budget sign.
Then you should see a page with Rate Preference, Discount Code (BCD) near the bottom. Put a dot where it says "BCD rates." Enter your code there.
Such a pain in the butt site!
I "discovered" this secondary reservation page by mistake (how nice of them to hide the BCD code box when on the home page!), but I still can't find a box to enter my coupon code. When I called Budget, they said they could do it on the phone but then quoted me a higher base rate. Anyone know how to enter both a BCD code and a CPN code at the same time on the web site?

I have not been able to find a way to enter a coupon code after many attempts. El mundo bizarro!
