JFYI: 3 useful facts that go long way.


Here are 3 facts that can be useful for you. Merry Christmas!

1. Canola oil is healthier to use than olive oil!

I know. Surprising much? However, there are more saturated fats in olive oil. If you don’t believe me refrigerate both in a cup. The olive oil will be thicker in fats. And we all believed that olive oil was good for us because the Food Network uses it for everything. I still believe olive oil beats vegetable oil!

2.Read the new terms on your credit card.

Starting January 2010 certain, if not all credit cards, are revising their terms. These new terms are not to benefit the consumer but to make sure they get their money. The higher the risk, the higher the price. Late fees will be increasing and for some credit cards the minimum payment will no longer be just $10 dollars! Good grief. I would name the companies, but that calls for law suits.

3. A tax on market bags is arriving in the new year.

5% to 15% tax per plastic and paper market bag you receive while grocery shopping! In the District of Columbia this tax will come in effect January! There is one coming to Maryland as well! I suggest buying washable carrier bags. They have fashionable one’s at Target, Walmart, and Crate Barrel!

Hope these facts go along way!
