More proof that posting deals in master threads is pointless.
Don't think 1,000 people would have jumped to see the DDMS deal if it was popular knowledge.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I actually already did this more than 2 months ago.
At the airport (JFK), They charged me for gas anyway and said there was no such thing as free gas rentals. CS also wouldn't listen, even though I tried to give them the link on their site. So I disputed and received credit.
A few weeks later, Avis woke up and gave me a refund too  :)

I have probably read the Avis thread less than 5 times as I am a hertz guy and therefore didn't even think of the Avis Master thread. I came across this deal this morning as I was looking for weekend deals for the upcoming migration to the catskills. I wasn't aware that this was out for a while. For me it seemed like an exceptional deal. If I knew this was posted already I wouldn't have started this thread or taken credit for it. Heck feel free to merge with the master thread if you feel it superfluous.

This seems to be extended for a 6 hours rental. Amazing, exactly what I need.
