Having my car towed to a salvage yard

I drove my car to the hair stylist and the McDonald’s drive thru, and everything was fine. At 2pm, I was going to go to the dollar store to get some paper towels. My car wouldn’t start. It’s a 2002 Toyota Corolla. It’s a repair trap, and I’m not going to put any more money into it, so I decided to have a salvage yard tow it off. I only have $413.00 available credit on my only credit card. I’m going to have to learn to live without a car.

hey mate. Know your pain. I’m on a fixed income and it’s not a big one. Cars are great but need money especially when they get older. I agree it’s not worth spending too much on something that is just going to bleed you dry…All good if you live in a city with public transport. I can survive and have done without a car catching trains and walking. I don’t do buses but they are there…

You have adequate public transport.?..you can always use delivery although it does get expensive.
