My parents have been using their old electric stove for over three decades and last year it finally needed to be replaced. I hopped onto the internet and helped my mother order a new GE stove from Lowes and life was good.

When it comes to buying a new or used car from a dealership, the biggest mistake many car shoppers make is buying based on the monthly payment.
In many cases, the end result is you either end up with a car that you overpaid for, you get stuck making car payments for years longer than usual, or you pay thousands in extra interest. In the worst-case scenario, you end up owing more than the car is worth or your new wheels get repoed.

Many people may wonder whether it would be a good idea to cancel a credit card they aren’t using regularly. In most cases, keeping a credit card account open will help your credit score. However, there are still a few situations where you may want to cancel an unused credit card.
Here are the do’s and don’ts if you are thinking about closing that old credit card.
After opening a new Amex Business Cash credit card recently, I noticed American Express took the credit from one of my other cards for the new card’s credit limit. While you can always request a credit increase, maybe you are like me and don’t need more credit.
Luckily, you can easily reallocate credit lines between your Amex cards. Here is how to do it online or by phone.
If you’ve bought a new or used car from a dealership, you’ve probably experienced this. After spending an hour or four haggling over the price of the car you finally come to a deal. Next, they hustle you into a little office where they try to sell you even more stuff, one of which is an extended car warranty.
