The regular car headaches (repairs, insurance, gas, etc.) have been replaced by public transit woes and LOTS of walking. I think it will lead me to buy a bike next week, actually. It's a a big transition, bigger than I thought.<BR/>Jerry<BR/>www.leads4insurance.comJerryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02297947643006068426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7265239484161667667.post-70599641692215973362008-04-16T00:52:00.000-04:002008-04-16T00:52:00.000-04:00Hi! Thanks for the comments!<BR/><BR/>We've both been having extra money pulled out with the tax withholding each paycheque.<BR/><BR/>It's not the best savings method, but it worked for us. Now that we've got our act together we've stopped the extra withholding. <BR/><BR/>Mrs. B. also gets the credit for her transit pass that helps out to the tune of a couple of hundred dollars on the return.<BR/><BR/>The money for the car is also from our emergency savings. The returns weren't that good! :-)Brianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08421586821781592677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7265239484161667667.post-73581006659740120482008-04-15T09:02:00.000-04:002008-04-15T09:02:00.000-04:00Oh no! Good luck with this, I hope the repairs aren't too high. I just put $514 on my car (and new tires in December, another $400) so I hope it'll last me a long time still!!<BR/><BR/>What did you guys do to get such big refunds?Canadian Saverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18335109256687297543noreply@blogger.com
