Quick TipsFor years, I've been a pretty big fan of Capital One. This includes regularly recommending their Savor (formerly SavorOne) card and opening a 360 Checking Account. Heck, I even kind of like their commercials — including the one where the spokesman apparently lives at the branch or Jen Garner parodying A League of Their Own...
Travel TipsFor those tired of waiting in line to print off bag tags at the airport, Alaska Airlines has introduced a new solution. Recently, the airline started selling its electronic permanent bag tags to the general public. So what are these things all about — and will I be picking one up for myself? I first...

Personal Product ReviewsA few months ago, while visiting my wife's family in Ohio, I came across Go Brewing in the non-alcoholic beer section of a local grocery store. Upon trying their Not Just Another Story Double IPA (Now known as simply "The Story Double IPA"), I was blown away. When I got home, I looked to see...

Well, while several of those deals are still in place, others have joined the party. So, with that, here are some of the discounts, special offers, and other deals available in a...
Quick TipsEach year, I like to do a round-up of Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals being offered for the various products I've reviewed in the past. Of course, with these sales now regularly starting early, I figured it was worth looking at what deals were already available before checking back in next week. So, without further ado,...
Travel TipsOnce upon a time, when you flew anywhere of reasonable distance, you'd be served a meal onboard. And while this wasn't always the best food (see: stand-up comedy bits from the 80s and 90s), it was included with your ticket. Of course, those days are long gone — unless, of course, you're flying in first class....
Quick TipsWhen the app Pepper Rewards launched earlier this year (or, technically, launched its rebrand), I was an instant fan. Not only was the app easy to use but it also had plenty of solid brands, all offering 5% back on gift card purchases. However, since then, the offering has continued to evolve — and not...
Quick TipsThere's no question that Uber has been a game changer for travelers and commuters alike. Not only did the platform provide an often less expensive competitor for traditional cabs but also made them easier to hail and pay for. Plus, it provided plenty of people with a solid side hustle opportunity. However, while I've been...
Hotel ReviewsOver the years, I've spent countless hours in Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, but have never really ventured into the city itself (other than driving through it on road trips). So, when it was revealed that FinCon 2024 would be held in Downtown Atlanta, I relished the opportunity to finally explore the area and stay in...
