Karma

Yesterday I became a believer of Karma! The day started out like any other day. We went to lunch with my Brother-in-law and his wife, then we headed off to Wal-Mart to look for a printer. When we arrived we found an awesome rock-star parking space. As we were walking in we saw a large older lady in her motorized cart trying to stand up with the help of her old friend and a scrawny walmart worker. It was obvious that try as they may she wasn't getting out. Kavic, as we know, makes his living lifting large old people. He walks over and ask if he can help lift the lady out of the cart, they of course let him. Kavic lifted the lady in one try with no extra help. My favorite part of this story after the lady was standing she said "you did it without even hurting me". After Kavic got the lady into her car we finished our shopping in walmart.



We then made our way to the Hyundai dealership to ask about the cash-for-clunker deal. We had talked to another dealership and they said we couldn't do it because the Registration was in my father-in-laws' name. We thought we needed a second opinion. The man at the hyundai store said as long as Clair was a co-applicant we would be fine!!! That was great news. So we test drove a hyndai sonata and fell in love. As it turns out there was another sonata that had more bells and whistles than the one we were driving and was less expensive, try and figure that one out!



We were sold!



So here is how the finances worked out for us. The car was mistakenly marked down $750 from what is should be at $24,000...cha-ching! Then the salesman told us we would get $4500 for our clunker, and it should have only been $3500, they were having an extra rebate of $2500 off making the final price around $14000. So all in all we ended up getting $10,000 off the should-be sticker price. ( I know that math doesn't add up, but it did at the dealership, so I'm not going to complain). This was such a great deal for us we couldn't pass it up. If we had tried to sell the jeep we maybe could have gotten $2000 out of it. This was the deal of a life-time and we are so happy we did it!





Then to top of the day we got a phone call to let us know there is a house that we can rent when we move to Blanding! Housing was all we needed to finalize the move.



Moral of the story...help an old lady out of her shopping cart and Karma will take over!
