Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and the days in between are great opportunities to do some holiday shopping for your loved ones, but there's no rule that says you can't save on ways to treat yourself as well. This year, the car rental company Budget is offering steep discounts on vehicles booked the weekend after Thanksgiving—and you don't even need to face Black Friday crowds to get in on the deal.

To get up to 40 percent off your car rental, head to Budget's website between Friday, November 23 and Monday, November 26 (Cyber Weekend). As long as you're renting from the U.S. or Canada, using the code B055500 when you book lowers your base rate price.

You can apply the discount to the car you'll use to get to your family over the holidays, or use it as an excuse to plan your first epic road trip of the new year. As long your trip starts on or before April 15, 2019, you can take advantage of the special offer.

If you're not that into electronics, car rentals are just one of the many surprising things you can find for cheap on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. From online classes to beauty supplies, here are more deals to look out for.
