captdotcalm Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 I followed the link from betterbidding.com to PRICELINE.I had Priceline search for a car and then I bid much lower because I saw some writeups that you could win a car in TPA at $12/day.I chose Economy @ $12/day.They threw it back at moi.Then I chose Compact and mid-size and bid from $17-$35, finally winning at $35/day.Alamo, mid-size, 4 days, 4/16 thru 4/20 for $185 totalSummary of ChargesYour Offer Price: $35.00 (per day)Total Rental Days: 4 days(3 days and 20 hours)Subtotal: $140.00Taxes and Fees: $45.52Total Charges: $185.52Lowest Published Price: $327.52Total Savings:* $142.00 (You saved 43%)Pretty good considering the highway robbery price out there of $327.I did start looking at rates 2-3 weeks ago and the best I found was off airport at $161 total. Would bidding weeks ago have really made a difference???
