Good Morning Everyone,
catching up
yesterday (Wed) I used a car show promotional coupon for $100 oil change, at the Dodge Dealership. The '93 Chevy Silverado was the recipient, and I saved $100. (it came to $97)
while waiting, I checked Tire prices, and received a quote re 4 new TOYO studded winter tires, mounted / balanced, taxes in, for $1100. So the '16 Murano will get new shoes and possibly an oil change tomorrow (Fri)
In the next few days I will probably take delivery of a 40 foot regl 8' 6" height Shipping Container for the property. Need to prep the area a bit first, so a buddy is coming over to assist with that tomorrow. I will probably RENT / LEASE it for 6 months first ($250 / mo) and then buy it following that period. It is in excellent used condition, not exactly what I originally planned, (but it can be painted, for about $300), my friend in that business offered it to me for $6250 delivered (a savings of about $3000.00). We will get 1/2 of the rent back if we buy it in the first 12 months. My thought is that we need the storage space (from garage, an old leaky trailer, a small shed, an aluminum yard shed, and the yet to be picked up personal items in Prince George that my Sister In Law has), so it will be worth it, but not something that I was expecting just yet. i had to consult with my wife, this offer was made to me yesterday. Wife has only been here for a week, and she is a hard sell. She thinks that we can manage without it, and could certainly manage with a 20 ftr instead. The 20 ft one was the same price $6250, and delivery of about $800 extra. I finally feel like we are making progress on cleaning things up and properly storing things while reclaiming the garage. I need access to the workbench. IF my wife is still not sold on the idea of the sea can in 6 months, or if it is too big (LOL
) then it can be returned after the lease, or if already purchased - we could sell it for the going rate of about $9000. I call that a WIN - WIN.
nap time , feet are restless
