Travel Deal of the Day (Feb. 26, 2007)

I just made a car rental reservation and found a coupon that saved me 75% off of the total price. I did not find the coupon in the Entertainment book or through some other membership organization. I just googled “Car rental coupons.”

The Deal:
Use web search tools to find car rental coupons.

How:
Enter the following into a web search tool such as www.google.com: “[Car Rental Company] coupons”. You will likely find quite a variety of coupons. Also add to your google search any membership organizations that may offer discounts (such as Entertainment, AAA, AARP, ABA…).

The Inside Scoop:
Do not forget to check the “special offers” section of your car rental company website when checking rates. The best discounts are often found in this section of the website, especially during slower times of the year when the car rental companies want to increase demand for its cars.
