We rent the same model (a Hyundai Accent), from the same company, for exactly 2 days in Tulsa this week. Total cost: $140.56!!!
So I call the local Budget location to ask why such a difference in price, and she says: "It's because we have the Chili Bowl Playoffs in town this week, and that's the going rate. It's what we can get when the playoffs are in town".... At least she was honest about it! 
Just a little tid bit for those who feel stuck at home and would rather be in OK.. :Steer |
Oh yeah, Hotels and Rental car companies know when they can rip you off and *GET AWAY WITH IT* Growing trend as well as sports venues that have strong rivalries having price boosting for those games only.
