Earlier this week, I shared my favorite travel hack – savings money on rental cars with Autoslash.com.  Well it didn’t take long for Autoslash to find an even lower price than on my rental car in July. Here are the savings so far and we still have 4 months to go!

July 2018 Rental (Florida, Full Size, 3 days, FLL-MCO)

  • 2/25 – Initial AVIS rental with no comparison shopping- $262.67
  • 2/25 – Autoslash found – Budget at $210.35 (baseline)
  • 2/26 – Autoslash found – Alamo at $194.87
  • 2/27 – Autoslash confirmed – Alamo at $198.37 ($11.98 savings; 5.6% from baseline)

Rebooking

Autoslash must have made some changes to the rebooking process – all I had to do this time was reply to their email below with ‘YES’ and my Alamo number.

Take note that they actually found a lower price than I was ultimately booked at – they sent me this email at 11:27pm and I was fast asleep.  I didn’t have a chance to reply until the next day at 10:30am.

Autoslash warns you that rates change quickly, by the time I replied almost 12 hours later, rates creeped up a bit and they were able to book me at $198.37 instead of $194.87.  Still a $12 savings over the baseline price and all I had to do was hit reply and type 3 letters – YES.

Still 4 months for rates to drop – stay tuned for my next update.
