I had an "Old Fashioned" recently with my Sirloin at the Clinton IA Candlelite Inn eatery. Makers Mark was my choice of bourbon. Wow. Had to have a 2nd one of course! :)

After watching 110+ episodes of Bar Rescue, I always order red meat medium well.

Good post. Great advice. I use a Visa for *everything* I possibly can. Within my budget. Period. I pay it off every month. No exceptions. The Visa is also a cash-back card and I estimate I've been credited $25K-$30K over the 20 years I've had it. I can honestly say I've never ever paid...

Sedona, bought privately. $20K Accent, bought privately. $4K Sonata, dealer. $20K Soul, dealer. $15K Seltos, dealer. $30K I can honestly say I was treated fairly by the three different dealers I dealt with. I paid cash for all of the vehicles. No payments for me!

The Mrs. and I live on a farm in the middle of the sticks....near Atkinson IL. We have a ton of stuff that keeps up busy managing the place, including the need to pull a trailor from time to time. We also own/manage #16 local rentals, so material hauling for those becomes paramount. So....we...

I do this yearly with my SiriusXM subscription. I'm a typical "it's not polite to barter" American. However, as Duke says, it's easy. I call the SiriusXM customer service # and use the magic phrase, "I can't afford the new price and will have to cancel." They immediately go to page 2 of...
