You're Paying More for Gas and Food-Ouch!

News Report. You know as baby boomers, we know so many people that are really feeling the crunch. This is getting absolutely insane. When we talk about the potential of saving money, making money, and getting all your groceries with Gift Cards, we are not kidding. It is so great to go shopping and to pull out our gift cards instead of our debit or credit card. 
This may not be a concern for you. However, if it is, or if you know someone who could use some relief and who isn't afraid to talk to others about a great opportunity, contact us. We'd love to share it with you.
Have a blessed day,

TAMPA - As the price at the pump continues to rise there's another necessity out there making customers cringe at the register.
"At the grocery store, especially poultry products, the eggs the milk, all of that has increased tremendously," said shopper Nancy Cooley.
Economists say food prices are up nearly seven percent.
Combine that with the high price at the pump and that means the combined costs of food and gas are eating up 15% of Americans total income. That's three percent higher than 2009 at the height of the recession.
Americans are certainly feeling the pinch.
"It's getting so bad that I had to go to work and right now I went for bankruptcy today," said Joanne Oshea of Spring Hill.
"I've noticed in the meat it's gone up extremely high," said Tom Frain of Clearwater.
Economists believe the rise in prices may signal another recession...
The prospect of that has economy weary Americans bracing for the worst.
"We don't know where things are going," said Frain.
