My car tire had a nail in it and had to be repaired, so I joined Costco to get it repaired for free (that was $60 that almost paid for itself)
Unfortunately I also spent a lot money shipping at Costco
How come Costco repairs tires for free ? Is that true?
Yes, sams club and Costco repair tires for free if you are a member

I have always found it helpful to look at my credit card and bank account activity for the month to see where I am spending money and what could be cut. Generally your biggest expenses (besides housing and child care) are the ones where you should shop carefully and compare options or weigh the cost-benefit, etc.
THIS!! I found that I was spending $$$$ eating out and just as much on groceries!!! Once the numbers were on the page it was eye opening. I then changed to "treating" myself to eating at restaurants only on paydays (2x per month) and still gave myself a budget. The key is to check your accounts and see where your money is bleeding out. Good Luck. I've been there.

I don't like this either. What's next, tipping at McDonald's?Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:I’ve stopped going to restaurants so I don’t have to tip.

I don't think you understand the business model. If you can't afford to tip, the service isn't really meant for you.
Yes, well
She stopped going to restaurants
Believe it or not, people tip what they can afford and stay away from services that demand a tip
Now I only do carry out and never have food delivered. Mostly because I always felt like I wasn’t tipping enough and was sick of the guilt.
They actually expect you to tip at carryout now.

Doesn’t mean you have to do it. People have to stop feeling obligated. Your wallet should be your priority, not someone else’s.
My fear is that they will spit in my food or something if I don't.

It was always the case. The food critic for the Post made a big public case for it years ago. He recommended 10% for the trouble to wrap it all up and think through utensils, condiments, etc.
