Inexpensive car seat recommendations?

Mrs.RamMrs.Ram

I'm considering getting an inexpensive carseat for our trip to Disney in June. We're renting a car, and I don't trust the rental place's seats. I could take one out of our car, but that seems like a huge PITA. I figure if I get an inexpensive one, we can put it in my mom's car, since she takes DD once a week or so.

I'm interested to hear if you guys have any recommendations for carseats in the $100 or less range. Thanks!

    we just bought 2 Cosco Scenera from Walmart.  They were on sale 2 for $78 or 1 for $39.  they have great reviews and it was on consumer reports as one of the best car seats.

    we also got cosco sceneras based on the recommendation of consumer reports.  they were inexpensive, and we've been using them for dd for over a year.  they do come with a (somewhat flimsy) travel bag, so you can take them as luggage with relative ease.

    We're getting ready to buy the Cosco one for travel/grandpa too.

    We have the Cosco as well for the grandparent's car and we always take it with us on vacations as well. It works great.

    We have the Cosco and like it for occasional use and you can't beat the price. We took one out of DH's car and replaced it with a Britax because it's a bit more difficult to tighten and loosen the straps and that gets annoying for everyday use. But we still have one in MIL's car.
