Renting a car can be a serious drain on your wallet, so stop wasting money with these three tips:
π Instead of a traditional rental company, use a car share app like or . Not only are they usually much cheaper, but they don't scream 'rental car', targeting you as a tourist.
π» Always join the rewards program, especially if you use the same rental company, because you can get some sweet deals sent to your email. Some places this allows you to skip the line entirely and just go directly to the cars, saving you time, too.
π Use your own insurance instead of paying extra at the counter. This is best if you have full coverage and/or a reasonable deductible. Many credit cards also offer free rental insurance as well.
