OGG Maui Convertible (Car Company???)

[broiler]

this is how i got the car through priceline for a convertible rental in kahului, maui.

i reserve a convertible for 13 days with alamo using costco membership for $660.00

costco lets u have a second driver free ( so i saved $130.00) (additional driver = $10 per day x 13 days = $130)

then i went to bid on priceline.

the strategy i used is as follows:

660-130 = 530 - 75 (the amount i want to save with priceline, in my case the trouble to deal with priceline is 75) = 455

so i bid 450.

and i got the convertible for 450 on the first try.

so if i add second driver to the priceline 450+130 = 580 , i still come out ahead of the costco deal of 660.

a saving of $80.

after the bid, i noticed that the priceline motto is save up to 30% off the quote price..

in my case it was around 32% or something that i calculated.

anyway this is for rental for march 8 - 21, 2009.

also if you do decided on a one day rental in kahului , maui, and dropping off in kapalua, maui

alamo is the only car rental that doesn't charge drop off fee.

and priceline doesn't do one day bidding.

hope this info's help :)
