Help Recoup $750 towing cost

Hi all,

I come to you all with a humble request. My wife, Allyson and I had worked very hard to make sure we didn't have to worry about money when we took our 2 year anniversary trip. Due to work, we only ended up taking 2 days off total. It was a great time... up until my car started acting up right before we made it even 20 minutes outside Charlotte. 5 hours and $750 later, it is now at the mechanics but now we basically have no money between us until next weekend. I have never been one to ask for help but it has just absolutely ruined what should have been a fantastic long weekend with the love of my life. I can only hope that what's wrong is not too expensive of a fix. Thank you for reading, and we appreciate anything that you can spare more than you realize.

TL;DR: Car broke down, towing 5 hours cost $750 we didn't really have, trying to get help recouping that bill.
