RE: How picking a “boring” car turned into a wallet win
Honestly, I get the appeal of a reliable “boring” car, but sometimes I wonder if we’re giving up too much. My last car had all the bells and whistles - heated seats, adaptive cruise, even a sunroof. Yeah, it was pricier ...
RE: WHY DOES PAYING MONTHLY COST MORE THAN PAYING ANNUALLY?
That’s exactly how I felt with a roadside assistance plan. Paid for the whole year, then my car barely left the driveway because we had a new baby. Tried to switch to monthly halfway through - no dice. They just said it’...
RE: Weighing legal trouble vs. losing trust: which is worse after fraud?

RE: If You Had To Switch Insurance In Kentucky, Who Would You Trust?
Totally agree. I used one of those sites last year and thought I was getting a great deal - until I realized roadside wasn’t included and my deductible was way higher than I’d wanted. It’s wild how much gets glossed over...
RE: Why can’t I use my points AND a coupon at checkout?
I’ve run into this too, and it’s honestly confusing. Sometimes I’ll ask if I can use my rewards plus a promo code, and the cashier just shrugs or says “the system won’t let me.” I get that businesses want to limit discou...
