Karen’s Opinion

It seems like everything is going up. I don’t want to talk about the price of gas. That makes my blood pressure go up. The temperature outdoors keeps going up. My kids keep growing up. The only thing that has gone down is the APR that Mint Credit Cards offers!

This uk credit card has an attractive introductory offer and has recently lowered their typical APR. Their interest rates on balance transfers look interesting too.

MINT is a business name of The Royal Bank of Scotland. Check out their site to see if this isn’t the best credit card offer ever. Be sure to read the agreement so you know that to benefit from the full period of any special offer you must not break any term of your credit card agreement.

Maybe this is the card you need to get those credit card balances down!

I thought I would share a bit of what our daughter has been doing. She is loving this! A few more weeks of learning about the airplanes and helicopters and she will begin the bookwork. Doesn’t she look like a happy camper?

I am telling you that if you haven’t checked out Bid4Prizes you are missing out! My friend just won a digital camera! Woo hoo! Remember when I told you how you win by having the lowest bid? Well, she did and she won! It is so simple. How about this $500 Tiffany Gift card for a great prize?

That pretty red BMW is what I keep checking out. I AM going to win one a prize at Bid4Prizes one of these days. I have been pretty lucky at winning a few things so hopefully I will pick the lowest bid for that beautiful car. It is so easy to register and then start bidding. You might be the lucky one to win a million dollars in cash! I hope you will remember me when you do!

I have heard a lot of complaining about the price of gas. We are paying $2.70 per gallon. I see where the national average is $3.22 for a gallon of regular.

Politicians keep saying they will do something about it but in reality there is not much they can do. Many people cannot afford to cut back on their driving. For some, driving is part of their job. Salesmen have to drive. Truckers have to drive. Deliveries have to be made.

What will be effected will be the things that don’t have to be done. Things like vacations.

I think there should be a class set up for newly married and young people in general so they can get a lesson on loans. When we go to apply for a loan, I don’t really understand half of what is said. I just sign the papers. That is not good.

Loan Wize is a great place to get information. They have categories on different types of loans and then give information on those types of loans.
