If you pick up the car at the Airport and book for Week End then Hertz has 50% off price. I did check others and this come out as cheap. Hertz Major Airports are included. Offer good until 6/30/09.
Edit.. NM I am booking Thursday through Mon and it says the promo terms have not been met. So am I supposed to book a whole week or just the weekend??I dont understand...
Edit..again... So I need a CDP that works with this. Any ideas? I will just try random ones from the Matrix unless someone has one that works best.

If you have a CDP that provides benefits, you will receive them.

I have booked the car on Thursday 6/4 and returning on Tuesday 6/9 and get 50% off. It has to be from Airport. So soon...expires..well you have until 6/30/09 and so many people can take advantage during these two months. So why give red when you have two months to take advantage?
This deal MUST be from an airport in order to qualify. Going to vegas this weekend and thought I'd give Hertz a try but Enterprise is still cheaper with their 50% off weekend deal.

Normally, I would say they'll kill the promo for the rest of the summer but considering the economy, if travel bookings for summer don't pick up soon, I'll bet they will continue it all summer. Just keep checking.
Does this apply to NYC metro airports? I have tried the booking and don't get the discount. Hertz advertised in the N.Y. Times and the exclusion statement says not available in Hawaii and P.Rico. Funny that it does not seem to exist in N.Y.
Advance reservations are required, as blackout periods may apply. Subject to availability, this offer is redeemable at participating Hertz airport locations in U.S. and Puerto Rico, excluding Hawaii. Airport offer applies to Standard and Leisure Weekend rentals and requires a 2-day minimum keep. This offer has no cash value, may not be used with Tour Rates or Insurance Replacement Rates and cannot be combined with any other certificate, voucher, offer or promotion. Hertz age, driver, credit and weekend rate qualifications for the renting location apply and the car must be returned to that location. Taxes, tax reimbursement, age differential charges, fees and optional service charges, such as refueling, are not included. Discounts apply to time and mileage charges only. Offer valid for vehicle pickup through 06/30/09.
It's that line about participating locations.... and I suspect NYC rarely participates in promos.

To this point, the best I have been able to do is a compact at Alamo for $180, which is about the cost of the two tickets to get MDW-OMA.
Thanks for the post.
did you try EWEB with National? how about AMEX code/possible AMEX $20 coupon/ free weekend day coupon?
"Due to bundled rate advertising restrictions, these rates are not available in CA, HI, NV, NY and the New York Metro Area. However, comparable rates - plus taxes and additional fees - are available in the just listed states." Their definition of "comparable" rate is rather different from mine.
Don't qualify for the $18.99/day weekend rate either: "DISTANCE BETWEEN LOCATIONS EXCEEDS MAX NUMBER OF MILES PER DAY."
