Our 1999 Subaru wagon is a work horse, but my husband and I only have one car to keep expenses down.  It’s inconvenient, but necessary.

Then one day I got a call from my best friend.  She’s single, lives in Denver, and was in a car accident and hospitalized.  She needed help with personal and household business.  This came a month after I lost my job and the bills were piling up.  I had the time, but couldn’t take our only car up there and couldn’t afford the airfare either.  Last minute flights cost over $500.  But I got bad credit in the past year, so I couldn’t borrow the money either.  

So I just went on the Internet and plugged in “Fast Cash.” Up came Car Title Loans in Tempe.  But these weren’t the stores along University Drive or downtown Phoenix.  It’s all online.  The website said our auto title was good for up to a $3000 loan.  

All I needed was about $800 for the flight, a rental car and food.  I completed the online application, got instant approval, and the money arrived electronically the next day.  In two days I was in Denver taking care of my best friend.

She is doing well and invited us to stay in her cabin in the mountains this winter.  It was well worth borrowing against that old car.  Payday car title loans really can come in handy.
