Auto Maintenance Coupons

There are two things happening right now that make people more aware of how important it is to save money: rising gas prices and the pressure to buy Christmas presents. I don’t drive as much as most people and I try to keep my gift costs down, but even so I am spending a lot more cash this time of year than usual and it makes me aware of other areas where I can cut costs.

I learned the hard way how bad it is to put off car repairs. Just ask me about my car repair bill last month. I had a transmission issue and I am luckier than a four leaf clover that I got to it before the whole thing gave out. Add that to all the other little things that I needed to have fixed and it made a bill so large my eyes watered.

AAMCO is a national chain of facilities that specializes transmission work and other automotive repairs. You’ve all seen the commercials – Double-A-M-C-O. You can sign up to be sent coupons and discounts on transmissions, brakes, tune-ups and other automotive services (you can opt out of the mailings at any time). AAMCO has free towing with major repairs, and I can attest that comes in handy. I had to have them tow me once when I was in town visiting my dad and the car I borrowed from him stopped running.

Save money where you can. If there are coupons available that make routine auto maintenance more affordable, by all means use them!
