    Default I'M GETTING A CAR--FOR FREE! & THE IN LAWS GAVE $$

    Hey my gal pals! My mom told me yesterday that she is GIVING me her car. Well, I'm thrilled. It's not new it is a 1995 Buick Regal. Here's the best part.... It only has 44K miles on it. Can you believe it? It's always been in the garage.

    Then also yesterday, my in laws said they had deposited $$ into our account....didn't we notice? I hadn't checked the bank account balance Who knew?

    It was a great day for sure. I should be getting the car in just the next couple of weeks. My dad will be getting my mom a new car.


    Anyway I just had to share this with y'all.

    I agree, that is really cool. My Dh's son gave us a like new mini van. It needs a little work, but when we get it going it will be one of the best vehicles we ever had. Unfortunately it won't get worked on till the house is done, but I can wait. Still like driving the jeep.

    Woo-Hoo for you !

    My parents did this for us last year, funny mine is a Buick Regal also..1989 a little older and more miles, but I just love that car. This one had been sitting unused for some time and our Ford explorer took a poop, they saved us a lot of worry. Enjoy that beatiful car and extra loot.
