Re: What frugal thing did you do today?
Changed my wiper blades myself ($23.88 for blades) instead of having the shop do it ($35.00).
I'm all for paying a skilled technician to do stuff I can't (or won't) do myself, but pinch, pull, unhook, hook, push and latch? Two minutes of 'labor' is not worth $10 to me. Also, I don't replace them every six months like I'm supposed to, as it only rains during the winter here. Seems silly to put new blades on that will never be used.
