Junky Car Club members are learning to live with less so we can give more. We're a bunch of happy drivers who are politely rebelling against consumerism by driving junky cars. We encourage our members to use their dough to support social justice causes instead of making fat car payments. We believe in environmental stewardship and hanging onto things a little longer. Junky Car Club members sponsor kids living in poverty through Compassion International.



Thieves Love The Junkies

Posted July 9, 2008 by Mike Foster

I read this over at Yahoo. According to these stats, I better start locking my 1993 Camry's doors.

 

Once again, the 1995 Honda Civic was the most stolen car in America, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau.

 

 ? In its annual "Hot Wheels" report, the NICB said the '95 Civic was followed by the '91 Honda Accord, the '89 Toyota Camry and the '97 Ford F-150 as the nation's most stolen cars in 2007.




How To Curb Spending

Posted July 4, 2008 by Mike Foster
I found this over Yahoo. They gave some tips on how to trick yourself into spending less.

 

Tip 1: No fuzzy math. There are lots of ways we convince ourselves that buying is better than putting back on the shelf. "I get miles or cash back for this when I put it on my credit card!" "If I amortize the price of these shoes over the number of times I know I'm going to wear them, they're practically free!" "I just returned three rolls of shelf liner, 'freeing up' $22.02 to spend on candles!"

 

Just say no to fuzzy math.
