Smoke coming out of my ears

I am so fuming mad right now that I have to vent it here so I don't end up saying something I shouldn't.

This may sound stupid but... Paul is at the tire place right now putting $600 worth of tires on my car. We just had two replaced in March at the tune of $300+. Then in April we put $700+ worth of tires on his car. And now another $600. $1600 worth of f*cking tires in 4 months. I seriously want to cry right now.  Is someone f'ing with me here?

One of the March tires was completely flat this morning and the other has a big nail in it. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr................

I just LOVE to spend money on this kind of thing. Angry

 

Re: Smoke coming out of my ears

  • that is really frustrating... does your tire place not have a warranty? i know that with discount tire (where we always get our tires) once i buy there, they have a lifetime warranty. that's a lot of money on rubber! :(

  • ugh!! Thats so annoying! I need tires too but i'm holding off until we get some money bc it's so damn expensive! Where do you get your tires? My parents always take their cars to BJ's, Costco or Sams club bc they usually have some decent deals on tires.
  • Oh I feel you!!!! We spent $1200 on tires this year for Art's truck.  He did 2 at a time.  I was SCREAMING the first time. I said to the tire guy you have got to be kidding me that it will cost $700 for 2 tires.....oh maam we can put the off brand on for $600.  Why didn't you offer us the $100 savings in the begining.  $1200 for 4 tires is NUTS!  Truck tires cost more. UGH!

    Car repairs drive me crazy!

  • that kind of thing really gets to me also!!! sorry you're putting so much out on these. :-(

    few months before the wedding, I had bought 4 new tires... sliced one all up on a curb a month later, so that was another one. Then 1-2 weeks later, my transmission died! on a car with 78k miles! So hello downpayment and new car payments. So I totally understand how you feel!!

    Did you get insurance on the tires?

    The car before the one I have now, my tires were $200 each... and we bought the hazard insurance or whatever it is and it was so worth it a few times!

    I'm sorry you've spent so much money- I would be really upset too.

  • blergh, that sucks!  I just had to get new A/C for my car (a 2004) for $1400 so I'm right there with ya in the PO'ed department.
