LAX Los Angeles Compact Budget

[carpediem888]

Used the PRICELINE link to try a NYOP (Name Your Own Price) bid on a rental car. End up failing at $12/day.

But, the site immediately offered me a regular fully cancelable reservation with Avis. It was comparable to the NYOP bids so I booked it.

Ran the search one day later and it turned up a new "regular" booking with Budget - and was about 33% cheaper. So, I booked this one then canceled the original "regular" Avis reservation.

Weekly rate: $69.45

Taxes/fees: $26.48

Total for the week: $95.93 for the full week (comes out to $13.70 each day including taxes)

Lesson: Sometimes, Priceline will offer the best deal even when not going through NYOP. :)

Glad to see you kept on top of this purchase and were able to cancel and re-book for the lower rate.

Thank you for sharing your purchase/experience and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.

Have a great trip!
