I have to complain a bit first. If there was no One-Dollar Freeze I might not even book the car. I was going to Vancouver alone for a few days. I am only 19 and my budget is really tight. My credit card limit is not high. When I think about a big charge at one time I get nervous. That day I was looking at cars on QEEQ. I liked a Volkswagen Golf from Trust Auto Group. It is automatic with four doors and five seats. It is good for one person with a big suitcase. I was doing the math and sighing. In my head I said I wish I could just pay a little first. Then I saw One-Dollar Freeze on the page. This payment plan only needs 1 dollar first so my card would not be locked with a big amount when I booked. I was a bit suspicious. I even said to myself maybe there is some hidden fee. I checked the price many times. It was the same and I did not see any extra interest. So I thought it is just 1 dollar. I can try. When I clicked confirm my finger felt much more relaxed. I did not feel like my card was going to be emptied at once. Soon it was early June. I went to pick up the car in Vancouver on June 2 in the morning around nine. The day before I checked my card bill. The rest of the money was already taken and the amount was the same as before. There was no strange extra charge. I felt calm and I thought this design was really good for students like me. At the start the pressure was not so strong. On the pickup morning the sky in Vancouver was a bit gray. I pulled my suitcase to the door of Trust Auto Group and saw the Golf waiting there. I felt like it was finally my turn. The staff at the counter checked my info and said I was pretty young so I needed to pay a young driver fee. I was ready for that so I just nodded. If I had paid everything in one shot on the booking day plus this fee my living money for those weeks might be gone. When I was driving around the city I suddenly thought if there was no pay 1 dollar first way I might just close the website and maybe choose bus instead. Now when I think back the main feeling is that my card pressure was low. At the beginning I only paid 1 dollar and my plan was set. Then I could get the rest of the money ready later. On the 5th in the morning near ten I returned the car and walked out with my suitcase. One thought came to my mind. Good that I only needed 1 dollar at the start. For someone like me who is still in school this difference is really important.
