I went direct with budget, $34 a day for compact car. Cheapest I could find out of Midway. I called directly so I could get the best price. Online they had the pay now, pay later options for a difference of $60 off the total rental price. I got the pay now price, but don't have to pay until I pick up. I think my total was $150 after all the taxes and surcharges, etc for the 3 days.

Thank you.

I just had a tear jerker moment, went to my SR's younger sisters teacher conference, she is a Junior in Video Production....the teacher played me the video my younger daughter did for a 7 sequence shot. It was of her older sister leaving!! She paired it with Carrie Underwood's song..."See you again" Holy Moly were the tears welling up in my eyes!!! I told him I was sorry for being so emotional, he said when she presented the final copy to him for a grade, he viewed it & played it for the class & a hand full of other teachers, and that there wasnt a dry eye in the room, so he had no doubt that I would tear up! Im so very proud of my SR & so is her sister!
