I did it again today. My car needed a front end alignment and I was quoted $48. I said I'm out of work and the going rate is $40. He said $45 and I took it because he's close and my car was in bad shape. I don't mind compromising when I'm geting the best in town.

Even people who can afford to pay full price, barter around here.
They think it's just good business, I guess. And that seems
sensible.

I'm with you Chats. I'll take all the worthless cash I can get
my hands on, too. If anybody is giving it away, I'll take it! LOL...

Agree. Glad to hear Saundra has the courage to get good deals.
I recall grandma saying, "Don't be penny wise and dollar foolish."

Old saying: "If you count your nickels and dimes, your dollars take care of themselves."

Of course, I'm not as old as this saying!
