I start with a little complaint first. Planning a trip with kids is so hard. My brain is always full. But this time there was a small surprise that saved me some money. That night I was in the living room. My two kids were fighting over the TV remote. I was trying to stop them and also checking my credit card bill on my phone. Then I saw the payment for my rental in Sofia and it looked different. It was a bit cheaper than I remembered. I thought I counted wrong. Then I checked my email and saw that when I booked with QEEQ I chose Price Drop Protector and it helped me save some money. I booked the car at the end of April at night. It was a little cold outside. After the kids finally fell asleep, I grabbed my phone quickly to book the car. We planned to go to Sofia in Bulgaria in the middle of May. I would pick up the car around the afternoon on the 16th, about one pm, and return it around three in the morning on the 26th. With kids, I must fix the car plan early. If they get tired and there is no car, they will cry and shout and I really cannot handle that. I chose a Volkswagen Golf from Alma Car Hire. It was automatic, four doors and five seats. It was perfect for our family so we would not feel too tight. The price looked okay at that time but I still felt a bit unsure. The exchange rate was moving a lot. I was worried that later the price might drop and I would lose money. On the page there was a service that said if the price goes down they can help rebook and give back the price difference. I thought that as a parent I need to count every coin for a trip with kids, so I ticked it. I just thought maybe I can earn a little if the price really drops. I did not think too much. After that, I was busy asking the school for leave for the kids and planning where we would go. I did not think about the booking anymore. One morning I was holding my younger daughter in the kitchen and making breakfast for her. My phone made a sound. I opened the email and saw a message that my rental price changed and they refunded the difference. I froze for a second. Then I saw the amount. It was a few dozen in my home currency. Not very big, but I felt so happy at that moment. It was like a small gift from nowhere. I still did not fully trust it so I opened my order again to check. The pickup was still in Sofia. The company was still Alma Car Hire. The car was still a Volkswagen Golf. The dates were the same. Only the total price was lower. I said to myself quietly that they really watched the price for me. It was not just some words on the page. For a parent with kids, it is so nice when I can worry less. I did not need to check other prices. I did not need to cancel and book again. I did not need to worry that I paid more than I should. I felt that someone was helping me save both money and energy. When I think back, if I did not choose this service, I would never know that the price went down later. My work and my kids already take all my time. I do not have the power to watch rental prices every day. Now I got the same trip and the same car and I paid less. I already decided that the money we saved will be for more ice cream for the kids during the trip. For a parent like me, this kind of easy saving where I do nothing and still get a bit of money back feels really good.
