On CNN today, there was an article about Corey Carter, and how he is spending about a quarter of his paycheck towards gasoline to drive to work.
There is so much focus on the price of gasoline, the housing market, and our economy right now. I have noticed other minor changes in the economy. I have listed them below, and you probably have noticed similar things in your local area.
There was an advertisement from an internet provider. I remember about a month ago, they offered cable, telephone, and internet for $100. They recent advertisement was for all three for $88.00.
Fast food treads throughout the United States are going more to the $1 menu. Even for breakfast, you can find a list of items of $1.00
Restaurants are offering special prices for meals if you combined them. They even are offering happy hours, or special times when you can come and get more of a discount.
Department stores have been having more sales focusing on discount prices, and event sales.
Car dealerships are offering free gas for a year or no interests for the first year.
These are a few things I have noticed.
Everyone wants your business, and every business wants to survive.
Everyone is waiting for the stimulus checks to start coming in. What will you do with your check?
I predict in late April you will see more advertisements focused on the rebate check. You will see stores sending out special sales they are going to have in May.
You need to decide on what you want to do with your check.
