Never been able to give 2 weeks notice...I don't hesitate to negotiate with them though. I got $500 off the final price on my grandmothers funeral...and...$1000 off the final price of my fathers funeral.

My parents had everything arranged before hand, my sister was in charge of everything in the end so I was kept in the dark and ended up with the frozen boot...lol

Not cheap...just frugal...I worked hard for my money and no longer spend what's left without thinking about it.

I've got everything arranged for me...and...surprisingly...when we visited the funeral home after my father died...he had made his own arrangements a year before. The only thing for me to do was negotiate a better deal.

When you hit the quote button it automatically puts the front and end quote
