YYC June 27-10am till July 1-11pm

[NickMedic]

I used the BB PRICELINE link to start my bidding for a full size for June 27 at 10am returning the car July 1 at 11pm and was rejected at 15 per day.

Tried SUV, Premium, and Luxury class all at 20 and all were rejected. I have seen by searching the board that someone got a full size for 15, so here's hoping that I can increase my bid to 20 by 1 dollar everyday for the next week and get a good deal.

Have a backup reservation at Budget for 260cdn and one at dollar for 245 for full size, but Dollar uses Toyota Camary's as full size, even though we all know they are midsize. I want a true full size and I know that dollar doesn’t use Priceline or hotwire at YYC. I asked :)

My goal is to get full size for 200 all in.

Any suggestions? Am I crazy?

I don't think you're pricing is crazy... but just a bit out of reach at the moment.

Any chance you're a member to a wholesale club? (Costco, BJs, Sams, etc)

Yes I am a Costco member, but never know how to use thier discounts. Is thier a really good discount being a costco member?

On rentals their deals can be worthwhile (usually not on hotels)... but some of their offers require a Costco number to search (which i don't have)

Also, are you aware that July 1 is Canda Day? (some coupons/deals may be blacked out on this holiday)

Ive given up. I have tried about 50 times for Full, Prem, Lux, SUV, and Minvivan all the way up to 35 per day, but no success. I am sticking with my Budget rental as it is cheaper and I can use my fastbreak.

First time PRICELINE has not come through for me

Sorry this one didn't work out for you... but glad to see you have a back-up reservation which should suit your needs.

Thanks for 'closing' this thread.
