i need a rental for a month from 7/10 fo a month in cherry hill nj who should i rent from
Your best bet in Cherry hill  is with Avis I think. 7/10- 8/8 (29 days) for a subcompact  $770 with AWD 177255 (USAA) and Coupon MUWA041.

Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me find a good rate for a fullsize rental for July 11th for one week.
Cheapest I've found so far is about $299 including tax at enterprise with Chabad corporate.
Anything cheaper?
Thanks in advance!

i will be vacationing in LA from august 12th-16th and i have enterprise plus with a corperate and hertz gold and national emerald isle and avis preffered, the best rate i found was $31 with enterprise in the city (not the airport).

is there any way to get this rate in the airport, and if i want to get an upgraded car (such as a convertable) what would be the cheapest route? thanks!

Hey all, looking to rent a small/midsize SUV in Baltimore from 8/12-8/17.  24yo.  What's the best way to avoid the underage fee?  Best price seems to be Avis at a little over 300, and their local office is open on Sundays.

Any input is appreciated!

Just looking for best deal.  2 people, very little luggage.  I looked into Zipcar, just not sure if it makes sense cost wise (although the free parking return at zipcar location is a plus)

Thank you

Hope this can help someone.

I was trying to rent a convertible in hawaii and the cheapest i found for the 4 days was about $400 (hotwire).

I saw a post on FT about http://www.aloharents.com/

They booked me one with Thrifty for $282.00 all in.

Has anyone else used Aloha rents for car rentals in Hawaii?  It seems like this was the only time it was mentioned on the forum - any other positive experiences, or I guess more importantly, negative experiences with them?  They definitely look to be cheapest, but I want to be sure I'm getting good value.
