We bought our only car - just have the one …
we’re retired - back in 2019. I put the features we wanted into a buying service. We were inundated with emails. We decided on the car and offer our regular dealer made us. We paid cash. We take it into the dealership for service at the recommended intervals. Like Dick, we HATE hassles.
Costco hearing aids are wonderful. They are attractively priced and the FREE hearing test once a year lets the technician adjust them as needed. Also - which I think is a plus but others may disagree - all your hearing aid information is stored in a database which can be accessed at any Costco hearing aid center. Since we take a lot of road trips that’s a huge plus to me.

Many of us who give money to charities do so to help out those who are less fortunate than we are.
