With the holidays lurking around the corner, some of y’all might be heading to grandma’s house in some far away land like Nebraska. You brave souls might’ve opted to fly the unfriendly skies instead of spending the holidays stuck in traffic on I-35. And once y’all get to your destination, you’ll have to empty your life savings and rent a car unless you have some relative nice enough to come fetch you at the airport. Or you can use an Uber.

For y’all who don’t travel further than the Dairy Queen, you’ll probably never use an Uber. I thought the same way until I agreed to accompany my wife on a lengthy trip to North Carolina. Ten days of parking at the airport was going to cost more that what the car is worth. And since we had to be at the airport at the butt-crack of dawn, nobody we know was willing to drop us off. When my wife suggested we take an Uber, I was a bit hesitant until I realized it would save us a bunch of money.
