Sherminator98 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 My Bronco keeps eating rocks with its windshield and I've put out roughly $1500 in repairs for two windshields in the past 2 1/2 years of ownership Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have terrible luck with windshields. Every vehicle I’ve ever owned has needed a replacement at one point or another. Best decision I ever made was adding window coverage to my insurance. Only costs me a $100 deductible and most places around here will pay that so it ends up being nothing out of pocket for me.

Im at the point now that I refuse to use safelite now-I got a nick then a crack in my windshield back in July. I had Safelite try to come out FOUR times fix it-either had damaged windshields shipped to them or other things came up. I winded up using a glass guy that the dealership uses and had an OEM glass installed within four hours of calling him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the answer for so many consumers! Ain't that the truth! I cut down on some of the cost by going to ALDI when I'm down in Bloomington, IN or up in Indy Edited September 9 by morgan20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe parents let their kids drive these things. If I had a dollar everytime my ankles were murder by a kid speeding around in these I'd have enough money to fill my own shopping cart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the answer for so many consumers! You're right! After the mortgage and car payment, food is next! Nobody really knows how much they spend on groceries because you don't get a bill for just groceries. I have never seen a grocery store credit card, has anybody? Is there such a thing as an oil company credit card anymore? If I'm right about this, the reason is because you can't recover food or gasoline! But sure you have some idea if you pay cash, but if you put it on a credit card, it's mixed in with other purchases. You know, like the exercise machine you used three times, then shoved it in a corner and now use it for a coat rack! Or the $1000 TV you bought on sale for $600, then make the minimum payments so it ends up costing with interest $2000!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grocery stores have apps that track your purchases and it’s easy to find grocery store charges on your bank statement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @akirby replied, the gas companies still have their own credit cards and charges for groceries are easy to track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They invented these things called receipts.....lol If you want to know, you add your receipts together from xyz grocery store. Not that difficult (though time consuming).
