The only problem is that if I select DSM as the return location, I get the rate of $154.49 for 3 days and can't use the $35 off weekend rental coupon. On the other hand, if I return at the HLE, I get the rate of $29.61 (w/ the $35 coupon) for 3 days. Can I just pick the HLE as the return location when I reserve and return the car to the airport anyway w/o incurring extra charges? Both locations are corporate, if that matters.

Thanks for your help!
NO - You will get charged the higher rate
