When I got out of college, I thought it would be easy street from there on in. They never taught us about offshoring, downsizing and economic downturns at Missou.  But my DEKE husband and his TriDelt wife remain ever hopeful.

We hit a low point this past summer when we found ourselves broke with bad credit and a refrigerator on the blink.  Replacement cost: $800. The likelihood of finding the $800 under a seat cushion in the living room was zero and we were mortified with the idea of asking friends or family for help.

So I Googled for ideas.  In about a minute I discovered a demolition project in Overland Park where they had the exact model we wanted, despite our unfortunate circumstances (retail price: $1100), in a house set to be torn down the following week.  I fell in love with that refrigerator and decided we should own it for $500.  Aside from whether the seller would take my offer, I didn’t know where I’d find the $500.

But TriDelts persevere.  Fast cash was essential.

I surfed a bit more and found we could get a loan through Car Title Loans in Kansas City. They offered me $3000 in a title loan on my VW Golf, but all I needed was the $500.   So I filled out the online application and thanked God this did not involve scary stores in crummy neighborhoods.  The money came by electronic funds transfer to my checking account in one day, after which I set off to Overland Park.  

He took my offer!  I got a $1100 refrigerator for $400!  This is why I was elected house treasurer.

My husband made fun of me, but fast auto title loans for improvements to one’s home is always a good investment.  AND, this one saved me more than $700.  I don’t know of a better deal anywhere.
