Get a coolant pressure tester kit before you go (AutoZOne has them as part of their "loaner tool" program so you can get it for free, although the one they have doesn't fit over the expansion tank well, so you'll need to hold it on (by pressing down) while you pump). This puts pressure on the system, WITHOUT heat, and you should immediately be able to see where your leak is.
I fought a similar leak for months, finally got the above tool and immediately was able to see the leak coming from the T-stat housing. This wasn't evident when the car was hot because the housing gets very hot and the coolant leaking would burn off before leaving a puddle on the floor.
