Involvement in no-fee ATM networks make most credit unions more convenient and less costly than any single bank. If you bank by ATM, no reason not to choose a CU.

A common tactic used in rental areas in the winter is to run an electrical cord to a neighbor's outside outlet to feed space heaters. Shut off those breakers!

"Government regulations make it too hard to have your own business". Wrong, wrong, wrong. The city/state are terrific to work with now, just follow their checklists and don't waste energy fighting doing simple tasks. It is incredible how the tax system is rigged toward the self-employed. The only thing that isn't…

Rates have gone nowhere but down in the last 10 years (5.5%, briefly to 6.5%, then dropping ever since). Ours has been 2.25% for 5 years now. Best decision ever. I think you may be thinking of balloon payment or interest-only sub-prime loans. Will refi to a 7/1 ARM soon to hold us till we sell for retirement.

Divide your take-home pay by the hours worked (after taxes, health insurance, retirement deductions, etc). That gives you a much better worth to your spending money. Using gross pay isn't living in the real world.

What to order out:
1) anything deep fried
2) anything requiring trace amounts of ingredients not regularly used (ethnic)
3) a dish that makes a lot but you only want one piece (prime rib, lasagna, quality pie, quality cake)
4) anything that requires special sourcing (good seafood)
5) anything super complicated, or…

Looked frozen with knife, but definitely not when the scoop was used.

Don't take the advice of anyone under the age of 60. If they haven't invested through all the business cycles then they don't know squat.

Ocean Garden restaurant in Gorham, Maine. Triple lobsters with soup & salad bar for $19.99. Add steamers for $5.

A bit off-topic, but picking the second cheapest works well when shopping Wal-mart for goods.

For #7 (converting to hours worked) do not use your gross hourly rate, use your weekly TAKE HOME pay divided by hours worked. That is a realistic hourly rate after taxes, retirement contribution, and other payroll deductions. In the example, you would probably need to work 2 full days to pay for those jeans.

The more complex the product, the more likely generic is just a repackaged name brand. When the flavors of the store brand are the same flavors as the name brand you know they are the same, check out the instant oatmeal (and ice cream, too). I've seen cans of baked beans with the exact same lot number printed on a…

Yes, Eneloops are fantastic. In our camera they last about 4 times as long as name-brand single use. Been using the same Eneloops for 5 years, they don't seem to wear out. We probably have 30 batteries in everything. There are inferior counterfeits, shop CostCo or from Amazon proper to be sure you are getting…

Lookup the story on Luxottica that 60 Minutes did. Nearly all retail glasses are made by one company, under many different brands. And most eyeglass retail outlets are owned by them, too. It is a rigged market. Most people are getting totally ripped off by frames marked up 10+
times in cost. Exceptions are…

Only appears to work for personal pages, you don't get the share option for group page albums. Unfortunate, that is were contributions are most welcome.

Not all clothing blocks the sun well, a white t-shirt can have an SPF of just 5. I've gotten tan under a fabric umbrella at the beach, too. I'm not convinced on the reapplication times. Unless swimming or excessive sweating is involved it seems to last at least through the peak exposure hours. And why is more…

Olive oil, there is $10 a year easy. My Doctor says use nothing but. It is cheaper than corn/soybean(eek) from the grocery store.

Maybe greedy or selfish people...??..??
