My week of travel is March 17th through March 21st. I can leave as early as March 14th (maybe even 13th) and return as late as the 23rd.I'll be starting in Atlanta, Georgia.I figure I'll need plane tickets, a car to actually drive to Corvallis from Portland (although, if anyone has a better way to get to Corvallis, do tell), and a hotel room while I'm there (as near to Oregon State University as possible).I'm on a tight budget, so I basically need as cheap as I can find. One thing I've considered is renting a car only for the trip down and trip back (rent in Portland, return in Corvallis and vice-versa), but that hasn't shown to be much cheaper.I'm under 25, so there's often an extra rental fee.The cheapest I've found is...Plane Tickets: $450Car: $300Hotel: $200 (although, I don't know how to look for a weekly rate hotel online)Any tips on lowering any of these costs?

I live in Portland. Goes to school in corvallis (OSU). My friend/roomate Aunt own a motel right by OSU Campus. If you're interested in knowing about anything else. You can email me ^__^P.S. I don't know about the car rental deal. how long are you planning on staying in Portland-Corvallis trip? Maybe I can offer you rides down to Corvallis and or you can just take GrayHound down there. Ticket for GH are about $30-35 I think.
