The dealer just offered me an extended warranty and I accepted. Now I'm having second thoughts. I'm retired and drive the car about 5,000 miles a year. The current mileage is 42,000. The new warran- ty runs through 2015 or 91,000 miles. This will cost $3,000 -- $195 a month for 15 months. I'm 62 and on a fixed income. I can pay my bills, but I have trouble saving money. Is it wise for me to purchase this warranty? -- Elma, California Dear Elma: Given your circum- stances, I would advise against buy- ing this extended warranty. First, a Lexus is a well-made automobile. At 5,000 miles a year, your usage is extremely light. Statistically speak- ing, if you are careful to have the oil changed regularly, you should experience no breakdowns or mechanical difficulties that would be covered by the extended warran- ty. My advice is to cancel that extended warranty. Then go directly to your bank or credit union and open a savings account. Instruct them to transfer $195 from your regular account into your new sav- ings account once each month. After all, if you can scrape together $195 to throw away on this warranty, you should be able to do the same, but for your own good. If you take my advice, I wager that at the end of 2015 you'll be driving a trouble-free car and you'll have $3,000 in savings, too. If by some fluke you do need to pay for a car repair, you'll have the cash in your savings to cover the bill. Dear Mary: What is the best way to dispose of expired medications and old household clean- ers? I want to do this in a safe manner. -- Chris, Virginia Dear Chris: Call your local trash company to followed the proper guidelines for setting it out for pickup. Dear Mary: I was painting and forgot to change clothes. I tried to be careful, but I got latex paint on my jeans. This happened about a year ago. Do you know of any way to get it out? -- Mary Jo, Min- nesota Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate inquire about the disposal of haz- ardous household items. Most have an accommodation center where you can drop off cans of paint, cleaners, medications and other such items that should not end up in the regular landfill. You might learn that periodically they will pick up hazardous waste, provided you have Dear Mary Jo: Pick up a small can of lacquer thinner at the hardware store. Satu- rate the problem area on those jeans and allow to sit for a few minutes to soften and melt the paint. Gently rub the area with a clean white cloth until the paint is gone. Once removed, laun- der the jeans as usual. Lac- quer thinner will remove old latex paint from just about anything, including carpet and cloth car seats. Do you have a question for Mary?
