Cost Comparison

Every few years I check the rates of comparable insurance companies. The last time I checked I was getting a good deal. Yesterday I called to see what the new rates of my next car would be and I was astounded. It almost doubled from the previous years. I called the agent and he said that rates did go up but he would try to lower them a bit. I immediately called a rival company and went down my policy point by point to see what they would charge me. If I went with them I would save $1400 a year. Of course I switched the policies. Then I was annoyed with myself that I had not checked last year.
