Looking at a week long rental pickup and drop off in Wausau.

Everybody and their brother within 50 miles of here is ungodly expensive.

I used to get $99 specials all the time ~4 day.

WTF happened? All my vehicles are continuously getting smacked by animals or requiring wheel bearings every 3000 miles so I actually am stuck needing a rental if I want to do anything but it appears to not matter when I pickup or from whom.

Is there anything that isn’t more than a house and property tax payment?
