Once you wipe the tear from your eye, you never regret spending the money on a good battery.My son calls and says his truck wouldn't start and a buddy had to jump it off. I told him to get to the auto parts before 5 so they could check the battery and alt. They tell him it's the battery so he gets new one. I found out a couple days later from the guy in there his truck had a battery that was a little on the small side per the specs. They told him the price of the battery that is suppose to be in it and it was like $200. The same one he had was only $150. He chose the $150 one and told them he didn't have to money for the other one. They told him they would get it from me that it wasnt a big deal but he insisted the other one would be fine.
He had the money. I asked him about it and he just said flat out... I didn't want to spend that much.
He will learn. It's a good thing. It's better to learn to spend a little more on certain things than to have to learn to spend less.
He is tight and always has been since he was little.
I was watching a show the other night called Cheapskates that had me rolling. And it made me wonder how many of you have a good story to tell??
Those burritos come in packages of only 8 now. And not entirely sure how its possible, but they have even less flavor than they did before.On a road trip working we ran out of money. None of us had a credit card, and the only Western Union we could find had a sign on the counter that said "be back soon".
We pooled our pocket change and bought a ten pack of frozen burritos and thawed them in a bathroom sink of hot water.
Well, now that I'm married and the kids all grown, we keep a bottle of Tabasco, and can afford a can of store brand chili to pour over top.Those burritos come in packages of only 8 now. And not entirely sure how its possible, but they have even less flavor than they did before.
