Money and Finance

Yes, my bank offers online banking, and I've been using it for about 4 years now. I like it very much, especially since there is no fee for it, and I'm able to pay bills online, where, if I ws paying online at the company site, there's a service fee for it. So, I 'm still able to pay online, but avoid the extra fee by using my banks website. My bank has encrypted security, with a series of security questions if they don't recognize the machine you're logging in from.

I've been using Mint.com and QuickenOnline for about 6 months now. They both have their good spots, but neither one is "the" better program. I like Quicken for its ability to text me with the most accurate up to date balances on my account, they also seem to be more up to date with their numbers. Mint is nice because it actually checks my due dates, whereas Quicken just assumes them from the last time I made a payment.

I'm pretty frugal as it is when it comes to shopping for necessities. Car salesman hate to see me coming... 8-)
