September 2015 Car Rental Watch

[Boardwalk Gal]

We rent Dollar a few times each year. We have used Lock Low & Go a number of times. I think we always got a compact, though

I don't mind if i end up a compact...just don't want one of those gas guzzlers cars...it only the 2 of us...Also, were you able to bypass the counter utilizing the Dollar Express or the Rapid Rental?

I can not seem to get the visa code to work. I am also a member of Costco. AUghh my rates for Sept 12th to 19th through Dollar is 193.00 midsize
I have never paid that much. Any help with that Alamo code? I do have an entertainment book so I'll try the codes tomorrow. TY

I used Alamo Visa code AD2338FDF and it worked fine for me. I also used my annual pass code of 860292. I have a standard for 9/17-9/22 for $112.46. Without the annual pass code it is just $5-$6 more I think. The Visa code goes in the first of the 3 discount boxes. I also am an Alamo insider, so they added that discount.

Alamo rates went back up over the weekend, so if you're just now looking to book the prices may be a little higher

You need to put the AD2338FDF code in the coupon section, not in the Corporate ID or product code
I just tried and it worked fine for your dates. I'm getting a midsize SUV at 156$ with it for your dates, seems like it's the cheapest one

 

[Donnask8pro]

It just worked! TY. I can't even imagine why it wouldn't work last night. Still 5.00 more expensive than my dollar ressie.

Question, I have never rented from Alamo and did join insider. If I do a standard, what size car is available? Since reading back I see there is not standard and you get a bigger car?

 

[Donnask8pro]

I just tried the midsize suv and its coming up 283.00 aughh user error? Maybe I should try a different computer?

Sorry, forgot to mention this is with the Costco code (7014627) in the corporate id I'm still seeing it at 155$ now.

[Donnask8pro]

Im using AD2338FDF and 7014627. Correct?

OMG it was the times!
If you drop it off just a half-hour earlier, you'll get the same prices that I got
Works as well when picking up at 9:30am and dropping off at 9:00am. You just need to shave a half-hour

 

[Donnask8pro]

OMG! I got it!!! You rock! Thank you so much. I had the time to shift it that way.

 

[lovingthemouse]

I have seen plenty of Costco code responses, but are there any codes for BJ's? Thanks

 

[Donnask8pro]

I grabbed the paper at BJ's this weekend. I ran most of them and they are not good. I can take a picture if you want to see them?

 

[Tanooki]

Glad it worked out for you!

Now if I could get as good a rate for my minivan in August...

 

[Donnask8pro]

I have Bjs coupons and an entertainment book if you want me to post the codes?
