September 16, 2021

Preparing to make some big purchases? Here are four tips to help you shop confidently and get what you want.

There are two things we’re all about here at Our Bill Pickle: keeping it real and sharing this space with those who can provide perspective on matters outside our expertise.

He’s been working in the industry since 2016. I’ll be honest: there are definitely elements of his work that go over my head. But there have also been times where his training has helped us a great deal. This is particularly true when it comes to making big purchases.

Today, Jeff is sharing some simple steps that will help you assess big purchases, shop confidently and get what you want.
