All coupons with Budget are applied when return vehicle and then total price will be reflected.

Thank you!

Just watch them when you return it. I returned one in Knoxville & they rang me up at quoted price and didn't apply the coupon, had to chase the guy with the scanning device down & have him apply the coupon, which he did.

I just used code on line and it came up 359.00 for 8 day mini-van rental in May. Is price just a coincidence? Resv said codes and coupons applied. Nothing about applying at the end. Without code/coupon appx 750.00
I'm happy. Lowest I had found b4 today was 700.00 using a code with National.

Just make sure that directly to the right of the shown vehicle, in the little box and sideways on the initial quote screen, it says "coupon applies". Not all coupons work with a discount code. And as previously mentioned it is applied at return of rental.

Just bumping. Need a good deal for a May rental car.

Nana2Callie · 12-07-2012, 09:23 AM

We are picking up our rental on May 31 for 10 days in June - so I'm assuming that a May code will for me as long as we pick up on May 31. Right?

bigfish32 · 12-07-2012, 10:04 AM

Yep. The codes I used were from an April thread and they definitely worked.

ColoradoDis · 12-29-2012, 09:15 PM

Any new ones?

bigfish32 · 12-29-2012, 09:40 PM

My friend used that budget one today and it still works......and they booked for February

I'll be watching this one too. We need a rental for May 1-18. Right now I'm still working on getting a better rate for my January 23 trip (3 weeks away). National is over $300, but I do have a good rate for Alamo just under $200. If this is any indication, we won't see anything decent until weeks before our trips.

FireCaptMac · 01-08-2013, 12:50 PM

There has been some downward movement in prices for my dates. (May 22 - June 1) Using the KLM code at National the price was $478 last week but when I checked today it was at $428.

DH was happy with this rate, but I will periodically check around to see if we can get an even better deal.

We use Dollar often and although we book ahead, I keep checking. Sometimes their best rates come out 1-2 weeks before travel without using any code at all. I have gotten rates as low as $13.00 for an intermediate doing this.

kayladan04 · 01-08-2013, 05:46 PM

Thanks for the codes! I just booked a minivan for $225 ($302 after taxes) + the $40 coupon to be applied at return.

Now my question.... Is there any coupon I actually need to present or do I just need to make sure they actually apply it?

So excited! This may be one of our cheapest trips yet thanks to all the good deals I'm finding!
