How to find the Cheapest Rates at SMX, CA
rr
    Printing your confirmation
    Always print out your car rental confirmation when booking online, or request that one be faxed or emailed to you, if you make your car rental reservation by phone. Take the rental confirmation with you on your vacation. It can be a lifesaver if the amount the car rental agency tries to charge you doesn't match the amount you agreed to when you made your reservation, or if they question a discount code, etc. This happens more frequently than you might think, because of errors in the rental car agency computer systems or even because one of their agents is not aware of a particular promotion. If you have a printed confirmation, it will be very difficult for them to charge you a different amount.

    frequent renter program
    Join the "frequent renter" program of any rental car company you are going to use, even if you think you'll never rent from them again. It can save you hours in line. In fact, with some programs being a member allows you to bypass the car rental counter completely! Joining these programs involves giving the company your drivers license and credit card information in advance. It can usually be accomplished online in a few minutes, though you should allow a week or two to get your membership card in the mail. When you join, you can also specify whether you want the CDW/LDW insurance, which can save a lot of hassles at the counter.

    Saturday Night Stay
    Stay over a Saturday night if at all possible. Like the airlines, most car rental agencies offer the lowest rates (and most of their coupon specials) only to those who stay over a Saturday night.

    Weekly Rentals Rent for 5 days or more . Usually weekly rentals require a 5-day minimum. Weekly rates are almost always cheaper than daily rates, and coupon specials often apply only to weekly rentals. Note that you cannot turn in the car early and still get the original rate.

    Rent for 3 days or less, over a weekend (if it fits your travel plans). Usually weekend rentals require a 3-day maximum and a Saturday night stay. Weekend rates are almost always cheaper than daily rates, and there are often coupons for weekend rentals. Note that you cannot turn in the car late and still get the original rate.

    Don't get stuck on size. If you're not finding any low rates for a compact or economy car, try pricing a larger vehicle. Sometimes the smaller cars sell out first and the car agencies have a glut of midsize or fullsize cars. Depending on demand, it's not all that unusual to find a fullsize car or even an SUV for LESS than a compact!
