| Summary |
Fees for ATM transactions. Cell phone contracts you can't get out of with a crowbar. Big bucks for insurance you don't need on a rental car or for supposedly "free" wireless internet. Every day we use banks, cell phones, and credit cards. Every day we book hotels and airline tickets. And every day we get ripped off. You didn't fill up that rental car with gas? Gotcha! Gas costs $7 a gallon here. You're one day late on that electric bill? Gotcha! All your credit cards now have a 29.99% interest rate. MSNBC columnist Bob Sullivan exposes the ways we're all cheated by big business, and teaches us how to get our money back--proven strategies that can help you save more than $1,000 a year.--From publisher description. |
