Oh yes, I hate those! It's just a phone call people! I don't care if you can shave a penny or two off the current rate I've got -- we're talking a few cents per call! Arg.

It's like the people who will wait in line at a gas station selling gas at 93 cents a gallon and not even go to the empty 94 cents a gallon station next door. You're saving what, a dime? A half a quarter? Sure, after two months, you'll have saved a buck, but still. My time is worth more than that.

And scArA, I hate to say it, but I hate the Geico Direct ads. I live in New Jersey. Every Geico Direct commercial says the same thing: "Go with Geico and you can save lots and lots and lots of money. Not offered in New Jersey." No, I'm not so gosh-darn incredibly happy about it.
