I was pretty nervous at first because this trip to Knoxville was for work and I had to book the car by myself. I booked through QEEQ and I chose the One-Dollar Freeze service. It said I only needed to pay 1 dollar first to hold the car. When I saw that, I just stared at my phone. In my head I was thinking, is this real, what if something goes wrong on a business trip. That night I wrote down all my business trip costs. Flight, hotel, food and meeting stuff were all on my notebook. My credit card limit was already kind of tight. I was worried that if I paid the full rental fee at once, my card would look really bad. Later I opened my booking page again. It said the rest of the money would be charged before pick up and there was no interest. I said to myself, okay, I just lock the car first, at least I do not have to pay so much right now. I set my pick up time on May 14 at twelve at noon at the Avis counter in Knoxville. The car group was like a Mazda Cx-50 SUV with automatic gear and five seats. When I arrived, the counter staff asked me if I already had a booking. I showed him my confirmation. I was still a bit nervous inside and I checked my phone. It really only charged 1 dollar before. While he was doing the paperwork, he told me the rest of the rental fee had already gone through. I checked my credit card again. The full charge was made not long before I reached Knoxville, not a long time before the trip. I felt a big relief. I thought, good thing I used this payment way, or I would be counting every cent on my card these days. During the next few days when I drove around the city for meetings, sometimes I sat in the car and remembered that night when I made the booking. If I had to pay the full amount at once, maybe I would think for a long time and delay my plan. For someone like me who travels for business a lot, it is really helpful when the booking does not hit the card too hard at the start. My credit card did not suddenly drop by a big amount, so I felt calmer with all my other spending. When I returned the car around noon on May 18 in Knoxville, one thought came to my mind. This 1 dollar way to lock the booking is actually very useful for business travelers.
