Three things I learned this weekend - $$$ [View all]

[underpants]

First - I’ve needed a new battery for my iPad since the beginning of the shutdown. Apple stores are back open so I went to get an appointment. Next Saturday. Apple isn’t replacing batteries, they are replacing the whole iPad.

Second - horrible day yesterday. Car wouldn’t start at a gas station. Me, wife, child, & dog. 4 hours waiting for a fix/tow. I’ll spare you the details other than Liberty Mutual sucks. They are clearly outselling their capacity. You get what you pay for.

Third (related) - riding to the garage with the tow truck guy. Insurance companies had everyone working at home so they totaled everything. Smashed headlight? Totaled. Hit a deer? Totaled. They didn’t want their people out in the field. Should be a lot of scratch and dent cars available soon I’d think.
