The funny part of this whole trip did not start on the road. It started when I was booking the car. I was planning a family trip in the US with my kid. We were going to fly to New Orleans and then drive to Atlanta. My head was full of numbers. Flights, hotels, tickets for my kid. I was a bit stressed. When I saw One-Dollar Freeze on QEEQ, I thought it was some kind of trick. I kept thinking in my head how can I book a car with just 1 dollar. But I tried it anyway. During the booking I really only paid 1 dollar on my card. I felt my chest relax. My credit card did not get hit by a big amount at once and that felt really good. I remember it was around the middle of June. I used my phone to choose a car near New Orleans airport. It was a Toyota Camry type car. Automatic, big enough for the family and a child safety seat at the back. I was looking at the price and doing the math for the whole trip. In that moment being able to pay only 1 dollar first was a big help for a dad like me. A few days later I was packing my kid’s stuff and I suddenly remembered the rest of the car payment. I got a bit scared and opened the order. Then I saw the rest of the money was already taken by them automatically. The amount was normal. No extra fee. No weird charge. I felt lucky I used this plan. If I had gone to some other place and paid full amount on day one my card bill would have looked much more scary. Later my friend asked me how I could handle so many things when traveling with a child. I told him at least the car booking was easy for me. With One-Dollar Freeze I did not need to pay everything right away and there was no interest. It was like pressing a reserve button. When the rental start time got close they just charged the rest. For me the most important part was not how much money I saved. It was that during those weeks I did not need to worry about one more big payment. I could focus more on my kid. When I think back to that moment when I clicked confirm I remember saying to myself in my head ok I pay this 1 dollar now and deal with the rest later.
