Rental Car Savings

I reserved a rental car for us back in September or October for our Christmas trip to California. I would check every now and then to make sure I was getting the best price. Every time I checked I was grateful I reserved it so early because the price had gone up $200-$300 for the same car, same location, etc. Today is 2 days before our pick up time and I checked the website again only to tell Michael the type of car we had reserved. I was baffled when the price had now dropped more than $100! I quickly modified our reservation to reflect the new pricing. I am still in shock but it is certainly a good type of shock!
