a couple of weeks ago i needed a rental at DEN and there was availability, but the rates were truly ridiculous. I happened to check on the Ultimate Rewards site, and found a rental with Budget at half the price, plus got a further discount using Ultimate Reward points. So if you have access to Ultimate Rewards, you might check there [note: when I got to Budget in DEN they had no cars except for a minivan (I had reserved a compact), and you can't use Fastbreak with Ultimate Rewards which is a bummer, especially at DEN].
