Happy Memorial Day

I hope everyone had a GREAT holiday weekend. Thanks to our military and veterans!!!!

3 Tips on How to be Thrifty with Gas

In preperation for this holiday weekend here are some gas saving tips:
Tip #1: Buy gas in the morning or at night when it's cooler so less evaporates from your tank.
Tip #2: Don't idle for more than a minute because that wastes more gas than restarting the engine.
Tip #3: Lighten your load--every extra 250 pounds of weight in your vehicle burns an extra mile per gallon of gas.

Do you have RENTERS INSURANCE??

With all the recent storms going on across our country it would be silly not to have coverage for your personal belongings....

Did you know that in the event of a loss, the property's insurance will not cover your belongings??

Renters insurance is too affordable not to have. Get yours today!!

Today In History

Babe Ruth hit his last home run on May 25, 1935. Just a little sports history for ya!!!

Gatorade 20oz for $1.59 = $10.17 per gallon
Pint of milk 16oz for $1.59 = $12.72 per gallon
