Budget Allotment for Car Maintenence

Looks like our car is not in good shape right now, after a month of being stuck in the garage my husband pull it out yesterday for some warming up when he suddenly heard a gruesome sounds on the engine compartment. He tried to check it out but he couldn’t find what’s really wrong with the car. So for us to stop guessing, we sent the car to a car mechanic.

True enough we were right, the car needed some tune up and its radiator and water pump needs to be replaced. Urgh! Oh my! This means our monthly household budget will be decreased for the car’s repair. Urgh! This is really painful for a budgeter like me. Now, I have to adjust everything for us to purchase the auto parts needed for the repair. And with the looks of it, we might not have any savings this month. Urgh! We really have to work double time now for us to cover the car maintenance every month. I thought keeping the car out of the road would save us more money. But with the looks of it – We were wrong!
