Don’t Save Trees

January 12, 2010

My car broke down recently so I started looking around for a mechanic and came upon National Pride Auto. They had a decent website and made some good claims so I decided to give them a shot. Plus, they had a coupon on their website for free towing if your repairs cost more than $250.

Overall I was very pleased with the service. Everyone I spoke with was very friendly and they were able to fix it in a day. It turned out that they needed to replace the fuel pump, which ended up costing me $940. At least I qualified for the free towing… or did I?

I had this crazy idea that I would save a tree and just go to their website on my iPhone and show them the coupon. Unfortunately, when I tried to do this, the guy told me I needed to print it out.

Of course all my wife could tell me was, “I told you to print that off.” Thanks.

I guess I will think twice next time I try to save a tree.
