That day I was planning my trip to Victoria in Canada. I would arrive around the evening of May sixteenth and leave around the morning of May twenty ninth. I went online and checked car rentals on QEEQ. I saw something called One-Dollar Freeze. My heart felt a bit tight because I had already paid for flights and a hotel. My credit card limit felt kind of weak. Then I saw I could lock the car with just one dollar. I thought to myself this feels so easy. I picked an Avis Ford Escape. It was automatic with five seats. I imagined driving it around the city and near the water in Victoria. When I clicked confirm I saw the prepay amount was only one dollar. I looked twice because I was afraid I read it wrong. It said the rest of the money would be charged automatically before the rental started. I did a little math in my head. This felt better for me because I often buy tickets early and my card feels very full. A few days later I suddenly remembered this booking. I thought maybe I should check my bill. I opened my credit card app and saw only one dollar was taken. I felt calm right away. It felt like my card limit was saved for other things. In my mind I said if this was a full prepay like before I would probably start thinking about canceling the trip. One or two days before the rental started I got a payment notice. It was just around the time my booking was going to start. The amount was correct and there were no strange extra fees. I relaxed and only thought about landing in Victoria and going to the counter to get the car. For me this whole booking was like saving a seat first and paying later. There was no interest and no big payment at one time. So I did not feel that classic credit card stress. When I think about it now this One-Dollar Freeze booking plan was really nice for someone like me flying in from another country. I could lock the car early and still keep my card free for other costs. Getting ready for the trip felt much lighter and it left a really good feeling about how they let me pay.
