Some background: we only have one LO-friendly car, our other car has no AC, DH drives it to work, since he doesn't drive LO those days. I WFH so it's not an issue. We're double-paying on the good car so we can kill that payment before getting rid of the no-AC one. Then I'll finally get a mom-mobile!

DH is going out of state for a man weekend, and it's cheaper to drive because flights were insane. That being said, we realized it would be a LOT cheaper to rent a car for ME for the weekend and let him drive ours up there, instead of paying the out of state fees. He's going Thurs-Sun, and ideally I'd like to have the car Thurs-Sun too, but I can use our non-AC car in an emergency.

Looks like the rental car will be about $200 for that time... this is based on the only provider I've ever used, Avis. Are there any ways you guys use to find good deals on rental cars? Any tips? I'd like to not have to pay so much since really I'll just use it to take her to Gymboree Saturday, maybe out and about a little on Sunday, and that's it! She's with the nanny Thurs/Fri and she has a carseat for her and so Thurs/Fri it's mostly just for emergencies (since she goes down fairly early for bed we don't go out usually after I finish work.)

Advice is welcome!
