Obtaining Multiple Car Insurance Quotes Is A Great Idea

By Susan Tanner

I have seen numerous commercials regarding multiple car insurance quotes. As a matter of fact during one sixty-minute television program I counted six advertisements. To be honest I was a little annoyed at the amount of advertisements I saw during a short period of time.

While watching these commercials, I got an idea. I was curious to find out if this could actually help me save money. Although skeptical, I decided it may be worth my time to look into this in a little more depth.

Let me say first of all that I live in a very small community. Our city has a population of approx 2,500. Car insurance options here are a little limited. To be honest, my wife and I had our vehicles insured by the same man that our parents and grandparents did. After watching the advertisements I decided to take the plunge!

I took down the contact information for these establishments and was also pleasantly surprised to find that quotes were available online. I was also glad to see how quick and simple the process actually was. It took less 15 minutes to complete the whole application. Even better was that I discovered I would actually be able to save some dough!

As a matter of fact, I would be eligible to save $350 per year. That averages out to $29 per month! That may not sound like a great deal of money to some but that is $29 in savings or time out to dinner with my family!

I researched even more so and found the coverage of what I currently had would be the exact same. Affordable auto insurance did not equal less coverage! In a time where our economy is so unstable, any chance to save money is great.

My wife and I decided to give it a try! We selected a company we were comfortable with and signed up. The savings were real and the company has wonderful customer service! The customer service is top-notch, just like the local companies. I do not see a downside to this decision.

I am now happy that I saw the tv program that night with all the insurance advertisements. I am also glad I took it one step further and went online to research it. Most of all I am glad we are able save $350 a year! This allowed us to save more as well as enjoy a dinner or two out. It has been nothing but a positive experience in my situation! - 16459
