We had to get the windshield replaced in the car. See, BC won't let you insure an out-of-province car without an inspection, and a broken windshield is an automatic fail, and our windshield was broken. Bummer.

So Holly called a local Kia dealer, since our car is a Kia, and was quoted around $600 for the replacement (WHAT???). The rep suggested that she try getting other prices, however, so that's what she did. Next place, $700!!! After that, $300. Hoooooold on, that's, like, half! Ohhh, this person says that the other quotes were probably ICBC rates -- the rate you pay if insurance is covering it. Holls called one more person, and got a quote for just over $200!!! And this guy came and replaced the windshield IN OUR DRIVEWAY!

I just don't get it. If my windshield can be replaced for under $300, where do those other companies get off ripping us off? Because that's what they're doing. Just because insurance pays for it, they think they can get away with robbery? Jerks.
