KIMNGUYEN Posted July 18, 2005 Report Posted July 18, 2005 I am disappointed that I was not able to get a car through Priceline. I bid up to $25 and the last bid returned a response that "there are no available vehicles". There has been some glitch with Hotwire since it was fluctuating between $26.95, $30.74, $25.95 and the lowest was at $24.95 when I was in the process of booking but lost my connection. When I refreshed, the rate went up to $26.95..it is now showing $28.95.My booking resulted in the following:No. of days: 3 Price per day: $26.95 Subtotal: $80.85 Taxes/Fees: $28.44 Total Price: $109.29 Would have been $2/day less x 3 days for a total of $6 savings! :)
KIMNGUYEN Posted July 18, 2005 Author Report Posted July 18, 2005 Ahhh!!! I just learned that the Hotwire $30 rebate through Entertainment is link specific AND the car rental is now $24.95!!! Somebody shoot me and put me out of my misery! :::Yes, it's only $2/day but a dollar saved is a dollar earned! ::: :)
thereuare Posted July 18, 2005 Report Posted July 18, 2005 The Entertainment discount has been shown to not be link specific... you can still use an affiliate link with your purchase.Although there is a URL provided on the form, nobody has been denied for not using it. As well, if you click an affiliate HOTWIRE link, close your browser and then go to the 'special' link, the affiliate will still get credit. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
KIMNGUYEN Posted July 18, 2005 Author Report Posted July 18, 2005 I am going to submit a rebate request...I will post if I get it. Thanks! I am hopeful today. ;0
