Be Your Own Credit Card Company and Avoid Adding More Debt

I took my wife’s car to the mechanic this morning.  I forget just how expensive automobile mechanic labor and parts are.  This morning’s bill totaled $550.  Ouch!  It definitely does not take much to rack up a hefty bill on the cars that we own. In the past, I would have freaked out by a $500 car repair bill.  The car needs to be fixed though.  It would be unsafe without the repairs that were needed.  A large bulk of the costs is for new tires.  The old ones are bald and needed to be replaced.
