Free Car Rental Upgrades
When renting a car, find out how late you can be before the reservation is cancelled, and what time they close. If they grant an hour grace, and close at 6:00pm, reserve the smallest cheapest car for 5:00pm. Then, show up at 5:55pm, and ask for your car. All of the smallest cheapest cars will be gone, as they get scooped througout the day by frugal travellers. They may initially suggest you pay for an upgrade subtally (not letting you know that they don't have anny tiny cars left). Tell them you want the smaller car for gas mileage, hatchback etc. Then they will appologize, and give you a free upgrade.

Or, they will tell you to feck off.

Never really got this
I thought the idea behind reserving something is that they save one for you otherwise you'd just show up and ask for one.
