One Of Life’s Little Lessons

Here’s a frugal tip for you – make sure you’re not driving around with an expired driver’s license.  One that expired, apparently, on your birthday.  Which, if you’re like me, was over two months ago.

Oh yeah, and don’t think the state of Minnesota will send you a reminder or anything about said expiration date.  Because they won’t

So stop what you’re doing and check the expiration date on your card.  Then, figure out a way to remind yourself of that date – perhaps the Interwebs has an automatic reminder app.  You know IPhone does.  Because TRUST ME, you don’t want to find out your card has expired the hard way, i.e. the way I found out today.  I’m just saying.

On a final note, wasting time wastes money, too.  And that’s another one of life’s little lessons.  *sigh*

    Now, I don’t mean to boast, but in AZ we have outlandishly long expiration dates. For instance, my DL is good until 2040 – and I got it back in ’97. ;-)

    Now quit speeding, young lady! :)

    I just looked at my card again and went crap! And my birthday was in December….

    The Cheap Chick's Daily Deal

    Cooper Rocks!

    Many fabulous people have helped The Cheap Chick Empire throughout the years, and one of the best and coolest people to give me a hand up is Cooper Lawrence.  So I was THRILLED when I saw she had a new book out – The Yoga Club.  Dudes, you should all go buy it now and then read it and then say awesome things about it.

    Why?  Because Cooper is an amazing writer.  And?  A vastly entertaining person.  So it’s worth your time and money.  Cooper Lawrence!  She is Cheap Chick Approved.
