Save $500 a month?

July 30, 2008 | alternatives, personal finance | Comments (0)

Nothing wrong with that.  Some smart tips from ConsumerReports.org via Yahoo.   Not to beat a dead horse, but here’s one tip:

Stop Paying Bank Fees

Average savings: $25

The American Bankers Association says 52 percent of consumers spend nothing on bank fees each month. But somebody’s paying fees, and lots of them, because the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. says banks collected $39 billion in account fees and penalties last year. That works out to an average of $28 per month per household. But with some planning, you can pay zero.
