Last night, Charlene asked me to rent a car for her online for today. My normal rental company was all out of compact cars with such late notice, so I tried [Expedia.ca](http://www.expedia.ca/?ref=dashhouse.com). Bingo! I got a car at an incredible rate. We drove to the location described in the confirmation e-mail. Nothing there. We finally found a branch of the same company just down the road. It turns out that Expedia booked us with a location that closed nine years ago. Not only that, but this other location had no cars available for us. Thanks, Expedia! No wonder we got a good rate, since we were renting from a location that closed in 1994\. I almost wish we got a car from this company. I would have relished returning it to the phantom location.
