image via retro renovation Something tells me you dear readers share my deep and abiding love for Thanksgiving. On Sunday, window shopping in a fancy food shop with a friend, I suddenly got an anticipatory thrill so moving I hopped a little. Not up and down, but just up, once. Thanksgiving wasn t always my favorite holiday, but it became so when I was about 14. The day took on a hodgepodge element that made it more unpredictable party than overstuffed family function. My sister brought seemingly-glamorous (to a 14-year-old) college friends home, cousins in their 20 s would take the bus out to the country wearing black leather jackets, carrying cheese plates, and with a friend or two in tow, a fix-up could well be in the works, and a to-the-death game of Trivial Pursuit was a sure thing. Things have settled down a bit over the years as attendees have grown up and coupled off. Sebastian makes a mean green bean casserole, my mom s mashed potatoes are inspired, and there s usually almost as much stuffing on my plate as I want. This year my sister is being held hostage in Montana. For the first time, I can t count on her bloody marys and bold accessorizing. But two of my favorite eaters are driving up to sit at the long table, and I bring with me not a boyfriend but a husband. After the fast-paced flurry of a wedding, it will be good to sit down and have long chats with friends and family over a slice of pecan pie, a midnight bowl of mashed potatoes and gravy, and a glass of wine or five. What s Thanksgiving at your house like? Do you host? Is it friends, family, or both? A somber affair or an event where someone always dances on a table? Music for the table dancing after the jump

travelwishtv.com For the lowest rates try aiming for a weekly or even a monthly rate. For example if the daily rate is 59.99 you can often rent that same vehicle for 259.99 for the week. A saving of over 30% if you used that vehicle for all 7 days. As a general rule if you are planning on using the vehicle for 5 days or more your best bet is the weekly rate.

travelwishtv.com Most renters know to decline the insurance and then are often swayed at the last second by a salesperson pressuring them that the insurance will actually save you money. When renting a car, you'll be offered a collision damage waiver (CDW) and a loss damage waiver (LDW). The first covers you in the event of a collision, while the second covers any loss to the rental company. Both kinds of coverage are a good idea, but not if they duplicate coverage already included in your own insurance policy. Most insurance policies offer liability coverage to protect you if you injure someone in an accident; some also cover rental-car damage via comprehensive and collision coverage. Check your policy or call your insurance agent to verify coverage before signing up for a vehicle. If you're renting the car with a credit card, your card provider even cover damage to the vehicle in result off a collision. Again, check with your card company ahead of time to make sure.

travelwishtv.com Lisel Hlista here for TravelWishtv.com with your car rental travel tip. Beware of hidden fees and taxes. Make sure to return your rental car with the same amount of gas that was in it when you left. The rental company keeps track of this and if you think gas is expensive now wait until you see what the rental company will charge your credit card per gallon. Also stay away from renting at an airport if you can. Often times an additional airport fee in excess of $10 per day can be tacked unto your bill. Texas airports were the chief offenders, but airports in states like Arizona, Ohio, Maryland, Missouri and New Mexico also cost renters more in taxes and fees. Another hidden fee is the excess taxes in addition to the sales tax such as the licensing fees, arena fees, mileage fees, or other confusing fees. Renter beware if you see any rates below $20 per day. These rates are too good to be true and are often loaded with hidden taxes.

travelwishtv.com Often times, rental car companies will offer free or small fee upgrades to larger vehicles. They do this mainly because compacts tend to be in high demand. This sort of upgrade may seem like a great deal and is often hard to turn down. But if you have no real need for the extra space, it's cheaper to decline. Larger vehicles burn more gas, and if not used to driving a SUV s or other larger vehicle it can be a little difficult to maneuver and harder to park. If a larger vehicle will genuinely enhance your rental experience, then take the upgrade. This has been Lisel Hlista for travelwishtv.com with yet another travel tip. Thanks for watching.
