I've been seeing the fluctuations over the past few months myself, which was why I was getting so discouraged. From a Tuesday to Tuesday rental, the lowest I found at one point a few weeks ago was around $240 with taxes/fees. I checked last week and it went up to $270. This agent got it for me for $192...an offer I couldn't refuse. I didn't think I was going to do better than that. Are you being charged extra because you are dropping it off at another location? I noticed they do charge you for something like that as well.
