Financial Cookie Jar

Yesterday I got my oil changed. It was so cathartic. I’ve been really needing it as I was a 1,000 miles over what I should’ve been at my next change, and four months late. Oh well, what’s done is done. So Yesterday I was excited because I wanted to get the best deal for my oil change and knew on the back of my grocery receipt there was a coupon for a $19.90 oil change. Amazing! What’s funny though is a couple days after I got that receipt I was looking through my mail and found a coupon for the same place for $20.90. Clearly they are starting to raise their rates which I understand because times are tough so here comes inflation but it was so interesting how excited I was to use the other coupon. I truly got the best deal in town for an oil change because I was conscious of coupons. I think it can be difficult; collecting coupons. But when we have a coupon for something we want nothing feels better. There are tons of coupons out there so we need to take advantage of them. In doing this we can buy more and spend less for a little personal boost in this economy.
