(43,302 posts)Just get the car for free. I got mine free and the person who is sitting across the way from me also got one for free.
Both are really nice cars, too!
As a matter of fact, I don't pay for many things. I just think about what I want and it shows up.
The most recent example is I was going to buy a camping chair for my brother. The one he liked was $189. I had the order in place online but that night when I came home, I saw the same chair in the shipping box with the tags still on it. It was placed at the trash. I pulled it out of the box and saw it was brand new and unused. Later I inspected it more carefully and saw one bracket was bent, but it did not affect the safety or folding of the chair. The bracket was actually a safety measure, so I might put a cable tie on it, but I don't think it really needs it.
I suspect the person who put the chair out for the trash got a new one from the seller and was told not to ship the bent bracket one back.
My brother said he didn't want the chair because it was too heavy for his camping traveler. So I kept it for myself.
