Some people just know they could save hundreds on car insurance by checking Allstate first.

0:05.2

Like, you should know you should check your draft stats first before you put them on your fantasy team.

0:09.7

Or you should definitely check the expiration date on that can of bean dip you picked up at the gas station first before you dive in.

0:16.4

Yeah, checking first is smart.
