How I saved $40 and am getting healthy!

October 4th, 2007 at 10:19 am

My car, once again, is having issues. It's making wierd noises and vibrations. So I took it to the mechanic this morning. He is about a 45 minute walk from my house. While I was there, I called Enterprise to rent a car for the day so I could get home and then have a way to go back and pick it up.

BUT, I decided instead to save the $40 it would have cost for the rental and WALK HOME!!! Big Grin

45 minutes, not too bad! I am so proud of myself!! You have to realize, I am an almost 350 pound woman; walking home before NEVER would have happened! But since I rejoined WW and am looking for ways to save money, I decided what the hell? Mine as well go for it!

And when I have to pick it up? I'm gonna go walk there again! Big Grin

    Don't you feel "virtuous" when you do something like that?
    It must makes one feel so good to do something that takes a little effort, but has such good results.
    Way to go!

    Hooray!! I just kickstarted my own working out (after many months of nothing) and it does feel good, doesn't it? And to save so much money at the same time--a double whammy of positivity. Great job!
