Super Cheap Holiday MCO Rate
Hi folks. Just came across a super cheap rate for a rental with Dollar or Thrifty between Xmas and New Year.
The link above prices a rental between 12/25-12/31 and the total is $156.40 total including all taxes and fees for an economy car. This is *way* cheaper than it normally is (just look at what the other companies are charging).
Click here to see rates
This rate may be a mistake, so I don't expect it to last long. Grab it while you can.
Note that once you hit the results page, you can click on the link to "Change your search" to your own dates/times. Lots of other options in and around that week price out to similarly lower than normal levels.

Thanks for the help on my LAX minivan rental..
We did MCO last year Christmas.. 3 week rental.. I guess the prices would be different on 3 week rental.. because I didn't remember my Alamo rental to be over $1,500.. it was $930 tax in for 3 weeks including Xmas week..
A possibility for us going down again to MCO this Christmas again.. we'll have to see..

Weekly rentals in MKE for $61 all-in
Also now seeing weekly rentals available in MKE for $61.09 per week including all taxes and fees with Advantage, in addition to the aforementioned deals in ORD, MDW and SDF.
For those of you not aware, Advantage is owned by Hertz. While it's Hertz's value brand, it's a quality company backed by Hertz's resources and the basic car fleet is the same.
Guessing that these deals are going to disappear tomorrow, so grab it now while you still can. Click here to book, and just click on the link to Change your search to find dates/times that work for you.
Pick up any Thu-Sun and rent for as little as 1-day or as much as $28. A 1-day rental is less than $10 and a month long rental is $240.62. That's less than you can lease a car for!

One crazy suggestion for Autoslash....
Rainy day feature:
Allow users to book the cheapest compact car and a concurrent reservation for a convertible at the same time. Automatically check the weather 24 hours before the travel, and if it's sunny, cancel the compact, and if it's cold/rainy cancel the convertible.
Yes, a frivilous idea but something I often do!
It's an awesome site.

I haven't used Dollar for over 10 years.. Its usually Alamo, a few time Budget.. This will be interesting having made a res through AutoSlash..
I'll be finalizing Spring Break HNL, OGG and I think BI.. will definitely use AutoSlash as part of the process..

The absolute best way to get a great deal is to book as early as possible. Think about it this way...
Over the course of the next few months, rates may fluctuate between $100-$300 for a particular hypothetical rental. If you book today, when the rate drops to $100, then we automatically re-book you at that rate. Some folks get re-booked 6,7,8,..? times over over the course of a few months.
The guy who booked today for Thanksgiving essentially has 120 days of opportunities for price drops. The guy who books 11/1 for a Thanksgiving rental has only 24 days of opportunities for price drops.
While it's possible the rate could hit its low point between 11/1 and 11/24, and both people could end up with the same rate, I can tell you from experience that the guy who booked today is infinitely more likely to get a better deal.
Bottom line is that you should reserve with AutoSlash as soon as you even think you may possibly need a rental--even if you don't have your times set. After all, reservations are free, and you can change or cancel at any time, so there really is no downside.
The early bird gets the worm...

I had to go back to my e-mail and click on the link there because I couldn't find where to go on the website for my reservation.. Other than that.. looks almost too simple to use, which isn't at all bad..
