And now a word from our sponsor.

I had a very good experience with Budget out in Seattle a couple
of years ago.  My family and I rented a Budget for four days to
drive around the Olympic Peninsula.  We rented on a daily basis
because we did not know how long we would be.  When we turned the
car in, the clerk totaled up the bill for 4 days, then checked the
cost against the weekly rate.  As it turned out, the weekly rate
was cheaper by about 70 bucks.  The clerk then proceded to amend
the contract and charged us the weekly rate, thus giving us a
savings of 70 dollars.  We also put the whole thing on our
Sears charge card.  Since then, I guess I have been a little
partial to Budget.
