Helping a friend with insurance choices

by

A friend of mine is starting to look for life insurance coverage and she knows that my husband and I were looking into life insurance policies recently so she asked me to check out a few of the insurance websites that she found interesting.

One of the websites was called ComeToBarter.com and while I only took a short peek at the site I thought it was one of the better sites that she’d sent me to as far as insurance coverage goes.

It’s hard for me to tell my friend what company or policy might suit her best as i think insurance is a personal choice.

Why is the price of everything going up and up?

by

It seems like the cost of everything is going up, doesn’t it?

Groceries is more expensive, especially fresh produce! Then there’s the cost of electricity and home heating … both of those bills went up for us this year too. Just how high do they think they can hike the rates anyway?

Now we just found out that our car insurance is going up … even though both my husband and I have absolutely perfect driving records. No tickets, no infractions – nothing and we’ve both been driving for over 20 years … so wouldn’t you think our rates would go down, not up?

So now I’m trying to find car insurance cheap if that’s at all possible. Perhaps we’ll try calling our insurance company first and ask them why our rates are going up so much. It’s just unbelievable.

Are you as frustrated as we are with the price of just about everything going up so much?

Time to shop around for a new insurance company

by

In a few weeks it will be time to renew our home insurance (and car insurance too). Unfortunately the prices have gone up … quite a bit.

I think I’m going to spend some time this weekend looking on line for some decent home insurance rates. You’d think that since we tend to combine our home and car insurance that we’d get a slightly better price, but the company that we’ve been using for the last nine years doesn’t seem to car this year as they hiked the rates!

It’s weird too because we’ve never put a claim in and my husband and I both have excellent driving records with no tickets or any other kind of driving offenses. So it’s strange that they’re hiking the rates, but I think they’re doing it across the board to all their customers.

Anyone have any suggestions for some good Canadian insurance companies?

My back is killing me!

by

I can’t believe how much my back is hurting!

I was outside yesterday evening and for about 7 hours today doing work on my garden. My back is feeling it and it’s complaining!

I wish I could go see a chiropractor or get a massage but I don’t have health benefits anymore. hmmm maybe I should look for some really cheap insurance so that I can at least get a massage or some physical therapy when my back is killing me like this.

What do you think?

In the meantime I’m lying on the couch with a heating pad. The heating pad has become my best friend when my back acts up.
