Unless you’re one of those rare folks who pays cash for everything, you need a good FICO score. FICO is your credit rating. It is a crucial piece of information that banks, mortgage companies, and others use to decide whether to approve you for loans and credit cards. So be informed.
Here are some interesting FICO facts:
FICO® scores are your credit rating

Most lenders base approval on them
Higher scores mean lower interest rates
FICO® scores are calculated based on your rating in five general categories:
Payment history - 35%
Amounts owed - 30%
Length of credit history - 15%
New credit - 10%
Types of credit used - 10%
The median FICO® score in the U.S. is 723

Secrets of Buying Cheap Gasoline!
.jpg)
Today’s gas prices are hurting lots of folks in the wallet, and for a lot of Americans, public transit is not available as an alternative. So we’re stuck with forking it over at the pump. Here’s a couple of quick tips to strategize and save when you fill your tank.
1. Pick the right day: Buy your gas midweek, Tuesday or Wednesday. According to smartmoney.com, gas prices usually swing upward on Thursdays around 10 a.m. to prepare for weekend demand.
2. Pick the right place: As mentioned before on this site, there is gasbuddy.com and I found another excellent site on MSN.com. Both allow you to search for the lowest prices in your neighborhood.
Gas Buddy does have one advantage with its wireless feature. This is a great idea if, like me, you don’t always remember to check the cheapest prices online at home. I figure a few cents for a text message on my phone is worth it to save money on gas.
For gas prices, text message or email with the City/State or Zip/Postal Code as the body of the message. (Message subject is not necessary.) Examples: Los Angeles,CA or 55428.
For diesel prices, text message or email
A text message / email will be sent back to you shortly with the 5 lowest gas or diesel prices from the area that you requested.
GasBuddy text messaging service is free; however cellular phone service provider fees may apply. Check with your service provider for further information.

Nathan’s Hot Dog Special
Nathan’s Famous is offering a free hot dog, when you buy one at regular price. Nathans first opened in 1916. They also served hot dog nuggets, chicken sandwiches, onion rings and krinkle cut fries. They serve Coca Cola as their official drink.
Nathan’s is one of the best hot dog brands out there, my other favorite being Hebrew National. I should tell you I grew up in New York and some of my family comes from Brooklyn, where Nathan’s originated. When I was little I would go to Coney Island. At that time, Nathan’s was nothing but a boardwalk hot dog stand. Of course, now it’s a big national company. But you can still find them on Coney Island. And the crowds are big on July 4th for their famous hot dog eating contest. Coney Island is true Americana.
