FLL Ft Lauderdale Economy Hertz

[soleglo]

I need to rent a car from 12/6-12/9 in FLL. I saw a rate for $11.95/day on HOTWIRE for an economy car. I used the car checker on this site and the cheapest price was around $40/day. Should I book the HOTWIRE rate or try to beat it with PRICELINE? Do you think the prices via the individual car rental sites will go down anytime soon?

I would try to beat the rate with PRICELINE, and if rejected, take the HOTWIRE offer.

Nobody can say if rates will go down in the next week, but even if they do, and they went down by 50% (note likely), you're $11 would rate would still be almost 50% off of the new lower rate. On the otherhand.. what if rates go up? :)

Nearly 75% off (and perhaps more if you're able to shave a few dollars off of the above via PRICELINE) is enough for me to lock in the rate (assuming your plans are firm) and not worry if i leave a few dollars on the table.

Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know which service you ultimately use and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Used the link bid $9/day via PRICELINE and it was accepted for an economy car via Hertz. Now I am curious how low I could have bid, but I am pleased with the rate especially when I went directly to Hertz website I received a crazy price of over $200 for my rental period vs the $59.16 I am paying via PRICELINE. As always thanks BB!! In the dreaded economy every penny helps! :)
