This is still one of THE hottest cards to apply for folks. If you don't have one, or if you've got all of the other AMEX cards, this is good one to add to your wallet. You get Unlimited Cash rewards for up to 5% each time you use the card and they've now introduced a new 4.99% FIXED APR for your balance transfers! You also get a nice 0% APR on your purchases for 6 months! BLUE CASH FROM AMERICAN EXPRESS

• Update: Don't forget the other "Blue" cards from American Express. The Blue (no cash, just Blue) card gives you 0% APR for up to 15 months on your purchases which is great if you need to make one big purchase and want to pay it off over the course of a year-ish. There's no annual fee, and it comes with the same 4.99% fixed APR. And the Blue Sky gives you 0% introductory APR and a point for every dollar you spend that goes towards any airline, hotel, car rental or MORE with NO black out dates or travel restrictions (you've seen the commerical I'm sure). Both of these cards come with the same top of the line service that you get from all American Express cards.

I used to use satellite programming, but then cable lured me back with lower prices, but after a year their prices skyrocketed and it's now time to switch back. For more programming than with cable, it's a lower monthly price! Not to mention, you get FREE installation and NO equipment to buy! DirecTV has the #1 customer service satisfaction too. I'm personally going to switch over to DirecTV pretty soon. The price just blows cable away. Recap:

• FREE Standard Professional Installation up to a 4-room system
• FREE DVR or HD receiver lease upgrade after online rebate
• No equipment to buy. No start up costs.
• 100% digital picture and sound

With a lot of regular TV shows not in season, it's a good time to switch and minimize disruption. All of the people who I've spoken to love their DirecTV service. Mention code: ru7807 if you call them (800-431-1221). Signing up online seems to be the most trouble-free though. DIRECTV OFFER

Savings accounts at the local bank are never going to match the rates of the best online bank. Makes sense, since the online branch doesn't have to pay tellers, branch managers, utilities, and a lease. But let me tell you why I like to bank online:

• No long lines.
• Can check my account at any time, anywhere with Internet.
• Highers rates - 3.50% APY - One of the highest savings rate in the country.
• No Monthly Fees
• No minimum balance requirement.

You can actually get a higher rate putting it into an online CD, but that locks your money. And who knows how wildly inflation is gonna swing. Liquidity is nice in this unpredictable economy. HSBCDIRECT 3.50% APY SAVINGS ACCOUNT
