A Car and Some Beer...

we purchased a car for jeff this weekend.  we really didn't know if we would need one, so we have put it off, figuring out how to share one car even though I work about 35km from our house.  jeff recently got a J.O.B (!!!), so it was time to take the plunge and purchase another set of wheels.  he researched the best way to go about this, and as it turns out, they don't lease vehicles to individuals in australia - only businesses.  so we purchased a used 2008 peugeot 308 (i can't believe we're the owners of a french car, either ... pepe le peugeot, keep your comments to yourself :))  it's a cute little car, and due to some banking/international transfer drama that we'll spare you of, we purchased said frenchie car on our credit card.  in australia, they charge you 2.5% credit card fee, but jeff was informed by the dealer that they could waive the fee...if we brought them 3 slabs of beer.

yes, i am serious.

saved us 2.5% on the purchase of a car...

so, off we went to the dealership, with 2 slabs of peroni and 1 slab of crown.  life sure is interesting sometimes.
