Been searching for weeks! Everything I looked at in MIA was well over $70/day at the published rate. 9/22 - $25... rejected, with a counter of $77. Unsurprising. 9/23 - $29... rejected, with a counter of $74. 9/24 - $35... rejected, with a counter of $72. 9/25 - $37... rejected, with a counter of $72. 9/26 - $42... rejected, with a counter of $72. 9/27 - $46... rejected, with a counter of $74. What? 9/28 - $51... rejected, with a counter of $76. $*#*@#& !! Gave up. The cheapest thing I was able to find was through Alamo - picked up at FLL and dropped off at MIA, for $506.75 (using a coupon code from American Airlines) $56/day, before taxes. I'm flying into MIA, so I was planning to take a shuttle van service from MIA -> FLL, at a cost of $30 per person. Used that as my backup reservation. - until today. Took a look at HOTWIRE this morning... price listed was $294.87, or $28.95/day. Immediately used your PRICELINE link - and got the following result: I should have offered Priceline less. :) Seriously, though. I usually make these sort of reservations months in advance, assuming that I'd get the best price possible. What would cause the price to crash like this?

You're right. No more sleepy-posting!

Just got a minivan in FLL from 5/6 - 5/19 for $29 per day through PRICELINE. Offered the same bid price three times over the past week. Maybe I wore them down? :) Your Offer Price: $29.00 (per day) Total Rental Days: 13 days(12 days and 17 hours) Subtotal: $377.00 Taxes and Fees: $171.16 Total Charges: $548.16 Lowest Published Price: $1065.60 Total Savings:* $517.44 (You saved 49%)[/code] Hell yeah.

You are bidding for a rental within a week? Good luck, but be sure to check HOTWIRE as well.

... from PRICELINE. $12/ day Car details Hertz - Standard car Includes unlimited mileage LAS McCarran Intl. Airport Las Vegas, Nevada The car must be picked up and dropped off at this location. Pick-up date Tues, February 9, 4:00PM Drop-off date Tue, February 16, 7:00PM This is great! I was originally going to rent from Fox or Payless in LAS, but after reading the horror stories associated with those two companies (high-mileage, dirty, poorly-maintained cars, "upselling", billing irregularities, etc.) I was going to go with HOTWIRE @ their surrent rate of $16.95/day. Priceline's rate is better than I was going to get from either of the three!
