GREAT Alamo discounts: Contract ID#: WKADVANT and Coupon Code: AF4396SDN
Working Advantage is a kind of discount program offered as a kind of benefit to employees by participating employers. For an upcoming trip to Denver and Phoenix, I noticed some great rates at DEN and PHX through Working Advantage's program with Alamo.
Best discount for a rental of at least 5 days, valid through 12/31/10.
Contract ID#: WKADVANT and Coupon Code: AF4396SDN
For rentals less than 5 days, just use the Contract ID#: WKADVANT and skip the Coupon Code.
for a one car class upgrade use: Contract ID#: WKADVANT and Coupon Code: AU5059ODT
(Note: other discount codes I've used, not part of this Working Advantage program are I.D./Corp I.D. 428448 and Coupon code AF8928JDG, also another good I.D./Corp I.D. # is 675899.)

If you look thru the posts here (do a search for "early return"), you will find that this (getting caught and being charged an excessive rate) happens quite often. No recourse if you are caught and they charge you an excessive rate.
Occasionally, someone may get away with it but you have to ask yourself: "Do you feel lucky?" and/or "Is it worth the risk?".

Thanks for the posts! I've gotten the week rate to work for a rental that 4 days, 2 hours. I've got the reservation which should be proof of price, but am worried they'll hit me with an early return fee anyways. Any experiences?
