Million Mile Secrets Cheap Rental Cars

Special deals for 50+ renters.

Now it's your time. Enjoy our great offers.

When you click any offer below, your discount code (CDP#2007815) will automatically be applied to your reservation.

Did not see this mentioned before, and in fact I just found it via my Iphone app and on the offers for the main site.

No idea what the % off actually is, but re-making (adding to existing failed) a reservation I did for MKG F car a few weeks back, Travel Partners Club and PC 172196 ($20 off) was $161 for 4 days.

Now, with the 50+ CDP#2007815 and the same PC is $83. 1/2 off! ^ (Edited to add-got a Camaro SS for a $5/day upcharge)

Now, it sucks to be 50 in a lot of ways, but this is not one of them.

Have to see how this plays out in the future before getting too excited, but even as a one off...

Been trying to get a good deal with various codes for a 4-day weekend in August at SeaTac. #1 Gold was clocking in at just over $400.

Only decent discount was showing to be the Car & Driver one to around $320. Stumbled upon Mousesavers page which now lists their own CDP 2002500 at http://www.mousesavers.com/hertz-ren...scounts/#mscdp which says it's for readers of Mousesavers web site, no ID and indeed resolves as Mousesavers Inc. on the Avis site.

Best of all? Dropped the price down to $226. Couldn't find a PC that would stack with it but that alone was far better than any other codes I tried.

Many thanks for this - just saved me 10% on a three week rental (pick up IAH, drop off DFW fully pre paid in GBP).

I think this new 50+ CDP is a result of AARP's dropping Hertz as one of its car-rental partners. (AARP recently made Avis/Budget their sole car-rental partners.)

While I would guess the mistake rates have been corrected, thanks for the tip, as I was still able to snag a rate that's about $60 lower than anywhere else for my upcoming hunting trip!

Hi, long-time observer, first-time poster here.

I'm planning a trip to Yellowstone from Michigan for 11 days in September with my wife. I'd like to rent a PCAR, but even with the best CDP and PC combination it's over $800, which I am not willing to pay. But there are a few Car Class Upgrade PC's around, and I can rent an FCAR for $350 using one of those codes. The problem with that is the Hertz locations around my town don't usually carry PCARs, and it sounds iffy if they can get one for me on the desired date.

So here's an idea I came up with. It's about a four-hour drive to Chicago O'Hare on the way to Yellowstone, so maybe I might be able to use the Upgrade PC and grab whatever FCAR at my location and swap it with a PCAR at O'Hare along the way, right? The local Hertz already said they wouldn't mind getting a PCAR in return. Or, I can just give up the PCAR ideas and simply apply a better discount PC instead of the upgrade PC and rent a FCAR for $315.

My question is, do you think I might be able to swap the FCAR for a PCAR at O'Hare, or should I just give up and simply rent the FCAR, saving $35?

Hope this is the right thread (if I missed an answer upstream, apologies!)

I am receiving a couple of free-day certs with PC #3671

I am recalling (I think) that this has to be shown in the PC box in a certain way to "take" (appended somehow with x2 or something?)

I thought my browser would remember this from awhile back, but apparently not. TIA!

just saw a thread on slickdeals with a great deal.

$14.99 Economy/Compact Car
ASK FOR RQ: VSTPTE

Pay Now and Save on a Hertz Weekend Special!
At the Airport or in Your Neighborhood

Drive away with a great Weekend Deal from Hertz. Pay Now to enjoy a great rate of $14.99 per day on an economy car when you pick up from Thursday through Sunday. Weekend Special includes unlimited mileage.

This offer is available at participating Corporate Locations in the U.S., excluding Hyannis, Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard and HI.

Check out our great rates on other car classes too!

the post mentioned that that 14.99 RQ stacks with PC code 191531 for an extra $5 off a day.
i just tested it, instead of using 191531, that RQ stacks with PC code 182092 for extra $10 off a day!

Yep, there's something about this on the other coupon thread too. VSTPTE is the $14.99 pay-now RQ; the PC also works with RQ XCT1 which is now $19.99/day rates but pay later, which makes it easier to use since you can still modify/cancel it without penalty.

interesting. i tested out xct1 and it also stacks with the dollar off PC's. surprised since when i tried earlier this year, xct1 did not stack with dollar off PC's.

GW McLintock

It's not supposed to stack... it's basically a glitch. If you look at the T&Cs you'll see that it says that XCT1/VSTPTE cannot be combined with any promotional offer, even though that's exactly what's going on. Last year it took a few weeks for them to catch on; I'm kind of surprised it's taking place again.

Aww man. I'm guessing rutdog doesn't mind anymore. When I first posted, he asked me to remove my post. hope it doesn't get blocked by hertz

GW McLintock

I'm guessing at this point it's caught on, with posts from the other thread and now these. I've already made all my reservations though (all 3 ), and with any luck they will be honored. They are, after all, "guaranteed" (or ?)
