  1. you should check the rates every few months as banks do stuff like introducing a new type of account that pays more . they don't always give you the best rate. also if you have enough for a CD the rates can be higher.

  2. not entirely on board with the pink tax. use the men's product then. oh but it doesn't smell the same . i hate perfume of any kind . i buy all soaps and detergents fragrance free . if i could get deodorant that way i would but they only have it with aluminum which i stopped using 10 years ago. and women dress for other women on a day to day basis. men don't really care except maybe when you go out. so the entire fashion industry runs on women. i have 10 pairs of jeans and about 20 t shirts . i wear that every day. if i had to wear a suit i would have about the same quantity . as long as it doesn't smell and is not dirty i see no reason to wear something different. it's always black jeans and a grey or black shirt. and black running shoes from walmart. i buy them online for 17 bucks 4 pairs at a time.

  3. self checkout is rife with customers stealing mainly in fruits and vegs when you have to enter a product code. they enter a code for something cheaper than what they actually are putting on the scale. so i am not sure they are saving that much. on top of that it is getting very hard to find workers so you would have to wait longer to use a cashier. i usually use a self checkout because i'm in western ny and we too have been banned from using plastic bags. i actually now prefer the reusable ones as there is one chain called wegmans that has really good indestructible bags for a dollar. and i can pack way more into one knowing it will never tear or break. being a guy i never make 2 trips from the car into the house so packing tight and heavy is great

  4. don't take multiple vacations per year unless you have boatloads of money. and try to go on cheap vacations . if you really want to save just stay home on vacation and visit some museums or something cheap around town. and don't have kids too soon.
