Budget UK Offers a Third Off Rentals to Celebrate Valentine's Day

LONDON -- February 11, 2015: As Brits across the country get ready to proclaim their love for one another this weekend, new research from Budget Car Rental reveals the positive impact that spending a weekend with a loved one has on our happiness.

The poll of 7,000 people across seven European countries, found that 80% of British couples have a brighter outlook on life after a great weekend together, while 48% say they feel more refreshed and over half (57%) feel friendlier.

Spending the weekend together doesn't have to cost the earth, with British couples shelling out an average of £184 to make their weekend great. To help make couples' money go further this Valentine's Day, Budget is offering customers a third off car hire all weekend.

Budget's Love Bug promotion reduces the cost of car hire by up to 34%, over any weekend until the 29th of March. To redeem the offer, customers simply need to visit the Budget UK website on http://Budget UK.

"Our research shows that couples who make the most of their spare time together, doing new things and seeing new places, are happier. Our Love Bug promotion speaks to that by giving couples the chance to get out and explore together for less," said Mark Servodidio, Managing Director at Budget. "Budget and Go, because life's too short not to try and make every weekend a great weekend."
