What is a weird frugal hack that you don't think you would have realized if it weren't for a weird set of circumstances?
In high school I had a beater car. It probably should have gotten a tune up right after we bought it, but we never did that. I can't remember exactly what was wrong, but it wouldn't accelerate quickly so it lead to a viscous cycle of me trying to push my pedal even harder and my car accelerating even slower. I finally realize this wasn't normal, even for an older car, and had it looked at. When I picked it up, the mechanic and I started talking. He told me that accelerating too much and braking too much is really rough on the car. Since then, I've only had one car which I've driven very carefully. I've constantly had mechanics tell me my car was in great shape. I never would have known any of this had I not had a crappy car that took me too many months to realize wasn't working the way it was supposed to.
