Rent first, Buy later

Saturday, February 28th, 2009

I’m a fan of full-size cars that drive well, have plenty of space, and are aesthetically appealing to the eye. However, before I go out and purchase a new “whip” as I like to call it, I make sure to test drive or even rent the vehicle that I am interested in. I remember purchasing a car and two weeks later wanting to sell it. I won’t let that happen again…

The car that I am interested in possibly purchasing is the Chrysler 300 touring. I’ve test drove it before but I wanted to test it for a little longer than a half-hour so I decided to rent it through a rental company. I came across some Thrifty coupons that saved me 5% on my rental of the Chrysler 300.

I’m stoked that I don’t have to purchase a car before I truly know if I want to own it for years to come. I’m also stoked that I found a company that gives me a great deal on rentals. Now I’m thinking about taking a road trip… Vegas anyone?

Goldfish for Valentine’s Day?

I enjoy having animals. Throughout the years, I have raised snakes, lizards, frogs, toads, fish, mice, rats, and even a scorpion. However, one thing I do not look forward to is purchasing food for them. Today, I did some research online trying to find a cheap solution to feeding my goldfish. I came across Petco’s website and boy is it great. Not only do they have a wide array of products, they have fish food for 99 cents!!! Check it out here- http://tinyurl.com/bgat6c.

I like the fact that this is a cheap and easy way to save money and time when purchasing supplies. Not only is the fish food 99 cents, I was also able to put in this pet discount and receive even more off my order!
