frugalsue Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Just wondering what your total was with taxes and fees. I've been watching this same trip and HOTWIRE and Advantage is cheaper on their sites. I've been pretty disappointed with PRICELINE on their car rentals this go around since I'm finding cheaper off their site. I've been bidding 12 and hotwire I think is showing 15 a day on standard.

thereuare Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Just wondering what your total was with taxes and fees.If you try to "mimic" the above win at PRICELINE, entering the same dates, city, car type, and bid amount, etc... on the screen where you confirm your bid parameters before submitting the bid you can see the total amount for this rental.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

marshmcc Posted October 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 My total was 6 days at $16.00 =96.00 + taxes and fees 44.52 total 140.52 The lowest published price was 209.90 Link to comment
frugalsue Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Thanks for the reminder thereuare! I forgot about doing a mimic. Also I see he wasn't getting a full week and that does seem to make a difference - the cheapest I found on 6 days was 196.13 so he did really well on PRICELINE. I'm going to try again tonight after my 24 hours expire. I've been making sure to use the PRICELINE links on top! Link to comment
