  3. I would like to thank you for doing this.,.............. back when i joined the bca i never recieved my membership card or window sticker (and really thats why i joined) i did not know if there was a local chapter in the nashville area(i had never heard of one) and was not invited to join any local clubs i did recieve the bugle magazine (nice mag but in real life ...nothing in it helped me in any way) I know they cant make a magizine just for me and i dont expect them to. i did not rejoin because i (personaly)got NOTHING in return for my money i was not in a local chapter etc...and the cost went up to 40.00 now as to the cost cutting from another post 1. Movie ticket: $7.18 (6.93 movies for $50 for ONE PERSON, not a family of 4) I dont do movies i wait till they are on dvd 2. Restaurant meal: $10 each per person, with a range of $5-25, depending on which meal and area of the country. (5 meals out per year per person for $50) I only eat out once a week as it is (cost 9.00) 3. Annual subscription to Newsweek: $40-50 (personally, I wouldn't pay 10 cents an issue for it), but just listing it for comparison) cool 4. Average fillup ($2.42 per gallon, 18 gallons) $43.56 (1.15 fillups for $50) I fill up once a month as i work 11 miles round trip 5. Average cup of coffee price: $1.38 (About 36 cups of coffee) i make it at home and carry it with me 6. Average NFL ticket price: $74.99 for non-Cowboys tickets, $159.65 for a Cowboys game (guess who's paying for Jerry's new toy?) I dont care about the NFL 7. Average cable service monthly cost: $71 (up 93% since '96) I have dish network $14.95 plan with a dvr 22.00 month total cost 8. Average cell phone bill per month: $60 I have T-mobile prepaid plan total of 45.00 in the last 6 months( i dont talk a lot 9. Average landline phone bill: $49 mine is 25.00 dont pay for caller id call waiting no long distance carrier(long distance is free on mobile) so you see i have allready cut as deep as i can go so it aint as easy as some might think just my 2 cents worth scott

  12. all the stations in nashville (or i tennessee) have 10% fuel and my truck gets 22 mpg in town 26-7 on the road ....... but on a road trip a while back i got 100% gasoline and my truck got 31 mpg thats 4-5 more per gallon (20 gallon tank) thats + 80-100 miles per tank..... so how does 10% save money in my opinion it dont ........ just my thoughts on the subject...... scott

    May Bugle MIA

    <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: sintid58</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Its June and I still haven't received my May Bugle. I have been looking forward to this one since I heard they were doing the 58's. Anyone one else not seen theirs yet. </div></div> email me your address and you can have mine. its unopened scott prescottphillips@bellsouth.net put buick in the subject line so i will open it
  23. i finally recieved a refund from my cc company in aug of 05 scott
  24. just my 2 cents worth http://forums.aaca.org/ubbthreads.php?ub...true#Post282309 scott
  25. I joined the bca because i owned 2 wildcats at the time and i wanted a bca sticker for my window. I heard everyone talking about the buick bugle so i figured join and get it. I only joined for 1 year to"give it a try" Now i dont mean to [censored] anyone off but.... I never recieved a membership card or a bca decal. BCA Membership offers the following to new members: "- Monthly issue of The Buick Bugle published by the BCA, - Advertising privileges in The Buick Bugle for Buick-related items, - Participation in all club events and an opportunity to join local chapters and divisions, - Membership card and, as new members, one BCA decal. (Additional decals can be purchased from the San Gabriel Valley Chapter.)" the bugle is a very nice magazine but in the last year nothing in it has helped me personally.Now i know you cant make a magazine just for me and i am not asking you to. (you cant please everyone) Since i parted out my 64 wildcat i find that i hardly ever visit this site, not a lot of information on 70 and up cars here. anyway that is why i joined,i recieved my renewal a couple of days ago but i just filed it in file 13.......i figured my 35.00 could be better spent elsewhere scott phillips
