How do you figure? A big part of what we do on this board is find a way to save $100 here and $50 there as it all adds up to a $3000 J class seat. We don't have kids, the dog doesnt need to be walked so I have time to read a few posts online to get some input on what others experiences are. I just find the "how much is your time worth" kind of statements to not be well thought out as it doesnt seem like I have spent very much time on this at all. It certainly has affected anything else I have going on.
I did listen to folks that said start with AA and I dropped them a line via Twitter and they are going to get back to me. Yes, another 30 seconds of my time that could have been spent looking at kitten videos on YouTube but worth It I say.
