comparison shopping | River's world…..

My husband couldn’t understand why I wanted to visit sooo many different furniture stores. We’d picked out the style of couches….

And the matching chair and ottoman.

I’d even decided on the fabrics.

And just when my (very patient) husband was crying uncle and telling me to “buy something already!”….

From $7,775 to $5,798.

A savings of $1,977.

Yay me.

Less money and the satisfaction of supporting a small business that’s been in the same family for over 100 years.

That’s what I call a win win.

I’ve always found Hertz and Avis to be the most reasonable. Budget? Not hardly, they were $400 more per week!

As I was scrolling down for the premium/elite/luxury SUV we usually rent I came across this;
