Finance Tip for this week- Understanding Credit Cards
Hello Divas, I know that we all have credit cards and know how to use them of course, but do we all know how to manage them? We found a great resource for understanding credit cards- it is an online brochure, aptly named,Understanding Credit Cards published by the American Financial Services Association Education Foundation (AFSAEF). The free brochure can be downloaded from the foundation's website, www.afsaef.org.
Here are some tips from the brochure for managing credit cards:
Do not charge more than you can afford to repay.
Pay your bill on time to avoid fees and a possible increase in your cards' interest rates.
Be aware that paying only the minimum each month may mean it takes you a long time to pay off your balance.
Maintain the best credit record possible so you will be offered the best rates.
Decide in advance how you will use your credit card - whether it's for emergencies only or for routine purchases.
Understand the terms, conditions and costs for a credit card before you select one for your use.
Know where your credit card is at all times; don't leave it lying around.
Make a central record of your credit cards and keep it in a safe place (other than your wallet).
Keep track of your credit card purchase receipts so you can check them against your monthly statement.
Destroy receipts and statements once you no longer need them.
Thanks Divas- remember to Shop Smart and Be Fabulous!

Finance Tip for This Week- Invest More
Hi Divas, in the post below you can check out some great local sales...but we also want you to be smart with your money!
Did you know that on average, women earn 76 cents for every dollar men earn in the workplace? Women also on average spend about seven years out of the workforce to raise children. This means that with lower pay and less time in the workforce, women end up with smaller investment portfolios than men. Which leads us to our tip for this week- INVEST MORE. If your employer has a plan, join it and invest the maximum that you can. And, as always, consult with your financial advisor to create a plan that will work for you!

Steps to Setting Your Financial Goals
Hello Divas, we hope you are saving a ton of money with all of the great deals we are showing you! We also hope you are thinking about your finances- to get you started, here are a few simple steps to help you set your financial goals...
1) Write down your financial goals- Identify and make a list of your financial goals. Do you want to buy a new car? Buy a house? Pay off your debt? Go on a vacation? Buy a new DVF dress?
2) Categorize each goal into short term (less than 1 year) medium term (1-4 years) and long term (5 or more years)
3) Start educating yourself! Read the Wall Street Journal, buy a Suze Orman book, talk to your financial advisor (hey just reading this is a start too!). Start learning as much as you can and take baby steps to meeting your goals.
4) Evaluate your progress. Review as often as you can handle- monthly, quarterly- but at least try to twice a year. If you find that your plan is not working, look into changing course.
Again, check back each week and we will have some more tips for you.
Happy Shopping and Happy Saving!
