National Free Day Promotion 2017
National Car Rental is bringing back their popular “One Two Free” promotion where you can earn bonus points and one free day after just two rentals. Let’s take a look.
The Offer
National Car Rental’s “One Two Free” promotion offers its Emerald Club loyalty members (join here) the opportunity to earn one free rental day for every two qualifying rentals during the earning period that runs through Feb. 28, 2018. (Each free day covers base rate only.) To be eligible for the promotion, Emerald Club members must register at www.emeraldclubpromos.com/12Free2017.
How It Works
During this promotion you can earn points for completing a wide range of tasks including referring friends, downloading the app, completing a survey and much more. You also earn 300 points per rental. Every 600 points equals one free day.
According to their press release, here are some ways to earn bonus points:

Analysis
This is a wonderful promotion and one that you can use to rack up free rental days very quickly. I love National since I have Executive status through my Amex Platinum card and can pick any car from the Executive aisle when I rent a midsize. They have also been very accommodating when I have been looking for an SUV and have never hit me with an upcharge.
Happy renting!
