I wound up doing it the old-fashioned Priceline bid. 8/18-25, Economy, $20/day, $199 total. Hertz

As you don't have to cancel, you're fine.

The process seemed a tad more deceptive than when we used priceline frequently.

While I was booking air, DW said, "I've got Priceline for $181."

I asked, "How did you do that if you're not even logged in?"

When I did it, it did the same for me . . . showed me a page which made it appear that it had accepted the bid, and then asked for log-in info and payment. Once I did that, then it said the bid was not accepted.

Strange, though, while it was waiting for me to accept their counter, and gave X amount of minutes to respond, I logged on again and submitted a new, lower bid, which it accepted.

go figure

If you already have a prepaid reservation through Priceline, why do you care?

After months of searching for Denver 9/17 for 10 days believe it or not I got a deal on RCI. I got it for $316 instead of over $500. Looks like they forgot to add the taxes but it is paid in full and I called Enterprise and they verified it. They said it would cost over $800 thru them. There was only one car they screwed up . I'll take it.

Your posts on this topic would only be relevant if someone was looking for the same dates and location as you.

I don't really care why you care. It just looks like you are posting to yourself.

That's great.

But it seems like these helpful little discussions aren't appreciated any more.

Sad.

Yeah, I realize you've been around awhile, and we used to have these little discussions about how to get rental cars, and airfare, and restaurants, and stuff like that, so that when someone else has to do the same thing, they have something to go by.

Guess we don't do that any more.

But it's curious, to me and me alone, I guess, that with all the different new ways to do it now, the older one still works best.

For those who just crave knowledge, and have wondered how/if Hotwire changes as it gets closer to the pick-up date, that date is now 3 days away and Hotwire has dropped to $216 and Enterprise to $220.
