Save dough when you rent cars

[BSClay]

Travel is expensive enough. When you need to rent a car, don’t spend money unnecessarily.

Here’s a tip: Don’t rent your car at the airport. Often it’s cheaper to take a cab or public transportation into the city, where you can avoid extra taxes and user fees that city governments often impose on airport rentals.

You can usually return the car at the airport with no extra charge, as rental companies generally allow customers to drop off their vehicles at a different location.

If you’re staying at a hotel, park at a public lot down the street. Chances are the rates will be cheaper than the hotel’s overnight parking fees.

Also if you have frequent flyer miles you can sign up with most large car rental agencies to earn miles and receive discounts.

This is very good information to have with it being the time of year for people to travel. Anything you can get away from the airports is always cheaper.
