Given life's many demands, it is important to take time to unwind. With that in mind, Avis Rent A Car announced today that it is offering a free "Rental Health Day" to customers who complete a rental of five consecutive days between Sept. 9 and Dec. 13, 2009.

"Every so often, we all need a day to decompress and a change in scenery could be the perfect medicine," said Becky Alseth, senior vice president of marketing for Avis Budget Group, parent company of Avis. "The Avis Rental Health Day says thank you to customers. It also encourages them to reward themselves by getting away for some quality time with loved ones or maybe doing something for which they never find time."

To earn a Rental Health Day, customers must register online with a valid Avis Wizard number and e-mail address. Rentals completed at participating locations in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands will apply.

Within two weeks of renting, Avis will e-email a Rental Health Day reward certificate to customers for use toward a weekday, weekend, weekly or monthly rental commencing on or before June 13, 2010.
