Progressive Free Parking!
We’ve all seen those commercials where he is either paying to help people park or giving out free gas! I’m not sure how I feel about these commercials. What about people who might need a new car? Have they not thought about that? Are they not going to offer to help someone who might need a new car, with the amount of money they are supposedly saving they can afford a decent used car!
We are still in a recession some would say and I honestly think that we are still in that and that someone needs to help low income families with finding a car. I know I am a low income family and the car I have isn’t very good.
Donating your Car!
I know most of you are wondering where you can donate your car. I suggest organizations like American Red Cross , The Salvation Army or United Way . You can actually write off that on your next years taxes. It won’t be an instant money but then if your not looking for money as far as needing it for now. This is a great alternative for people who might need a car who can’t afford to pay for one because of being low income.
I know I will probably never get a free car but It would be something cool if not very nice. I am so tired of having really old cars and would love to have a new model car.
Single Family Dad!
I’m basically a single dad working anywhere I can, so I can support my family. it isn’t something that is always going to be something that I will look back on and say that was a good year. It is however something that makes me feel really good at the end of the day. I don’t worry about tomorrow because tomorrow hasn’t come yet. I try to only worry about what is today. I however have become increasingly worried about the car that I am driving because of the way it acts each and every day.
Hey Progressive how about help me out!
That is basically what I wanted to say about I am constantly worried about the car breaking down and not having any way to get to my job or anything else that I might need. Sometimes old cars may get more to repair than to the cost of the car. You will however have to consider cost verses repairs. I believe once the repairs are more than the car, you should consider buying another car and junking the car or selling it for parts.
How are you going to help someone today?
What are you going to do to help someone in need today? I’d like to hear your comments on what you did today.
