I echo the SkyRide option, if there is a stop near where you are going.

I paid 6$ one way last Monday, DEN airport to downtown. There is a stop at the light rail station just east of downtown (30th or something, forget the exact location). Free transfer from the RTD bus to light rail, can get you just about anywhere that you need. I think the next stop is the Denver bus center or something like that.
...
I then had a 1 block walk to Hertz local edition, rent car at 1/2 the price of airport pickup. Priceless.
I did the same thing in June! Got off at the Denver Bus Center and walked right down the street to the Hertz location.

Are you talking about just a one-way ticket? Because I recall buying a roundtrip ticket at the counter in the terminal and feeding the first one to the fare machine when I boarded, and the second one when I returned a few days later.
