6 Tips Here to Reduce Grocery Bill

6 Simple, Healthy Ways to Lower Your Food Bill

By Paula Pant

After housing and transportation, food is typically the third-largest expense for many American families. A recent Gallup poll shows that Americans spend an average of $151 a week on food ($7,852 a year). One of one of the fastest and easiest ways to reduce your food bill is by removing one of the most expensive ingredients from your meals: meat. Meat (particularly red meat) is a pricey addition to your meals. You don't have to turn into a full-blown vegetarian. Adopting a more vegetarian diet, sometimes known as flexitarian or semi-vegetarian, can still yield substantial savings and potentially improve your health.

The numbers make sense. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the nationwide average price for ground beef is $4.23 a pound. USDA sirloin steak costs $8.19 a pound. Boneless ham costs $4.42 a pound, and chicken breast is $3.51 a pound…

2015 Ford Mustang Review & Test Drive

The 6th generation Mustang is drastically different from its family tree of ford muscle cars. However when it involves icons like this pure bred pony, change is not always a good thing and can be a big risk. Has Ford improved or ruined its pony muscle car?

Reviewers say the redesigned 2015 Ford Mustang's robust engine options, athletic handling and high-end interior render it a thoroughly modern muscle car.

The Pros and Cons of a Reverse Mortgage

Ask Stacy: Should I Take Out a Reverse Mortgage?

By Stacy Johnson

Reverse mortgages are a popular topic these days, as evidenced by three questions I’ve received in just the last three weeks:

Is a reverse mortgage something to look at? We have a 30 year mortgage on our house for $70,000 and thought it might be easier to let the house make the payments for us. The house is worth somewhere around $225,000. – Roger

Can you give me a real, down-to-earth, honest-to-goodness explanation to the reverse mortgage currently being touted to seniors 62 and older. It almost seems like it’s too good to be true, and you know what they say about those kinds of deals! – Larry

What is your thought on reverse mortgages. I own my home, recently widowed and owe approximately $25,000. – Mary

OK, Roger, Larry and Mary, let’s look under the hood of this much publicized way to add some gold to your golden years.

What’s a reverse mor…

Tesla Model S P85D Review

Tesla Model S P85D is an Electric-Powered Superhero

BY Jeff Jablansky

Positioned at the starting grid of a runway, with the gleaming borough of Manhattan visible in the distance, the 691-horsepower Tesla Model S P85D looks like an earth-bound rocket, even while standing still.Watch Full Movie Online Streaming Online and Download

Perhaps that’s why it felt at home at Brooklyn’s Floyd Bennett Park, one of our first stops in an extended test of the electric wunderkind. Of course, an empty runway also sounded like it could be the perfect venue to test the Model S P85D at its theoretical limits.

Fat chance. The defunct airport’s crumbling runway is off limits to high-speed maneuvering, but it made for an incredible backdrop for this sophisticated sedan with unbelievable power. If Superman had to trade his airborne capabilities for an equally powerful motor vehicle that doesn’t draw too much attention to itself, the Model S P85D would be that ca…

If you leave your Olive Garden table with also only breadstick in the basket, you have failed to pass the "I am a human test".

The cost of the new sandwiches will be between $7 and $8. They will be shorter and wider than the regular sticks,…
