Flat Tire
This doesn’t happen too often, but when it does it really causes chaos. What I am talking about is getting a flat tire! Usually you are on a busy road with or without a shoulder and usually without a gas station in sight. I got really lucky this time around because I was able to drive right up to a gas station that was out in the middle of nowhere.
I was out driving and everything was going fine unti I tried to make a turn. As I turned my car ran over a big rock that was on the dirt road. I continued to drive although I knew I had run over something. Once I got about a mile down the road I knew something was wrong by the sound my car was making. Thank goodness that I was able to pull into this gas station on the side of the road and change my tire. All in a days work as they say.

Credit Cards
The other day at work a coworker and I were talking about money and the increase in prices that has happened recently. The subject came up because she was trying to apply for a new credit card. I told her how credit cards are the only thing helping me get by these days. I usually need to use them at the gas pump, etc. and then I pay them off with my next paycheck. She told me she didn’t have one and I was in complete shock.
I honestly do not know how people can survive without them. Credit cards are the best and quickest short term loans you could ask for. Take a look at accept credit cards and see for yourself how beneficial credit cards can be.
