What’s the deal?

Hertz is offering triple points for car rentals picked up between September 4 – December 15, 2012.

So, for every dollar you spend, you’ll get triple the amount of Hertz points.

Is it worth it?

Sure… if you were already planning on renting a car and the rates are decent. Considering that one weekend day rental is only 500 points, you can earn it by spending $166 (excluding taxes & surcharges) in this triple points promotion.

Additionally, a full weekly rental saves you a few points at 2,500. While I doubt you’ll earn 2,500 points with this promotion, every little bit helps to build your account balance.

How do I get in on it?

Just register here with your Hertz Gold Plus Rewards number. If you’re not a member yet, sign up! Hertz is waiving the $60 fee (until Sept 30) to become a Gold member so it’s nice to not be the bottom tier.

It may or may not be targeted because my e-mail address was in the original link, but for triple points, it’s worth a try!
