Car Hire Coupons & Deals: Avis, Budget, Europcar, Hertz, Thrifty
Once you have checked for the best prices you can get from Avis, Budget, Europcar, Hertz and Thrifty with a car hire comparison site, see if you can take advantage of these coupons below to bag yourself an even better deal directly with one of the companies!
The Duds
Go to any of Avis, Budget, Europcar, Hertz or Thrifty’s websites and you’ll find a “Specials” or “Deals” section listing their latest goodies. But try using them and you’ll find a lot of these don’t really do anything. If you had used a car hire comparison site to search across these five major companies, the “deal” price would have already been incorporated. Who cares if Hertz displays a bonus of “Weekend Deal! Rent a Car for just $35 per day in Brisbane!” when Europcar’s non-offer prices may already be cheaper? It’s just a decoy bonus deal that may distract you from better deals.
We hope to save us all some time by weeding out the real deals from the wannabes. These coupons will save you and are for anyone – no memberships required.
