I have been stewing about this shit all day, I now know the secret to being rich...

[newbreed]

So my neighbor calls me this morning at 7:00a.m. on the dot. Needs the coupon on page 27 of the phone book for the heating and cooling place. It's a 10%'er for service calls. Now look, I am all about getting the heat fixed, but FFS, 7:00a.m., to save 10%???

There you go, you can all thank me later.

if it is a $7,000 repair job, it might be worth clipping that coupon

I saved more using Geico

so whats the secret?

How is that a secret to being rich? If you wanted to be rich you wouldn't pay to get it fixed but instead invest what you would have spent on the heating repair in a HV/AC company. Then have them repair it and write it off on your taxes as a business expense.

Read it a little slower, you'll get it, I promise.

The real secret is to offer him 20% off and you go over tap on it a few times and wipe down the dust off the outside of the furnace go home with the 200 bucks. Then block his number ;)

I agree with this statement and will pass that on. I am also turning my ringer off for the rest of the winter.

Never answer the phone at 7:00 a.m. It's always bad news.

Except I'm not the repair person, I was the one stupid enough to answer the phone so I could cut a fucking coupon out for them.

i said that because you didnt post anything worthy of being a secret to being rich.

I like this idea better even tho I fix everthing myself.

You know, I am learning that more and more. It's always someone I don't want to talk to. I really thought this early in the morning it was something serious like maybe my garage was on fire or some shit, or there house was on fire and maybe I outta get my roof wet real quick or something.

I think i am just going to set the damn coupon books outside the front door and leave them there, let's not even bother with the phone call part of it in the future.

It meant a lot to most of the people on here, who are not rich, but might need a tip such as use coupons when you can.
