We will probably be renting a car for our vacation this year. So, instead of trying to cram my hubby, my grandson, myself and all of our travel things into my little Toyota Camry Solara (read that convertible with very little trunk space), I’m looking for a mid-sized SUV to rent for a couple of weeks. Here is what I found.

If You’re a Beginner, Consider Renting or Borrowing Gear. Renting your gear can be a more affordable way to try skiing without a long-term commitment. Finding an option that balances quality and price may be a better option for budget shoppers. Renting an apartment with a kitchen can make it easier to save money on food.

Use discounts on rental cars. We rented an SUV for our last vacation because our car is getting very old and the route was fairly desolate. I initially booked directly through Budget, and the cost for a large SUV for a week was $595. Then, to compare prices, I shopped through Costco’s car rental program.

Normally, I break my list down into three categories - budget, moderate, and splurge - but this year everything is under $120, and most are much less than that, so you can get more for your buck and be even more popular to that traveler on your list. Now, I use these for my laptop, headphones, car keys, etc.
