Avis Car Rental for $33/Day

The blog will be undergoing some maintenance tomorrow, so I wanted to post tomorrow’s Daily Getaway promotion in advance as I will not be able to add any new posts after 10pm EST today. 

Tomorrow’s Daily Getaway promotion (Day 10) is a one day Avis car rental for $33. This certificate is valid for any car-class up to a Premier car (Group G) and includes time and mileage. While $33/day might be good for some reservations, I do not think this is a great deal as I am typically able to get a car for much cheaper. I personally wouldn’t purchase this deal speculatively unless you know of a certain rental where you can’t get cheaper than $33/day (including tax). And unfortunately New York City is excluded. This certificate expires March 31, 2014.

Keep in mind that this is not valid for one way rentals and the terms state that you must return the car to the same facility you picked it up at. Also, you are able to combine up to 7 of these certificates for your entire rental.

Here are the terms from the Daily Getaways page:

• Coupon certificate entitles the intended recipient to one (1) day’s daily time and mileage charges of any car-class up to a Premium (group G) car. Specialty car classes such as H, F, W, Z, L, V, P, K, X (Cool Cars), and S are excluded.

• Taxes, concession recovery fees, vehicle license recovery fee, customer facility charges ($10/contract in CA) may apply and are the responsibility of the bearer.

• Optional products such as LDW ($29.99/day or less) and refueling are extra. A redemption fee may apply.
