For those unfamiliar with blog carnivals, it’s a chance for bloggers to submit their best articles and they are featured by a different host each week. There are many different kinds of carnivals, but some are geared towards money issues.
This week, Tim at My Money Forest is hosting the Carnival of Debt Reduction #47.Â
One of my favorite ariticles from over there is The Danger of No-Interest, Same-as-Cash Purchases. It’s a reminder to always read the fine print in any financial deal you get into.
The Carnival of Personal Finance #60 is over at Get Rich Slowly.
I learned something new with the article, How to Get an Incorrect Medical Bill Corrected. I’ve discussed before how you really need to watch hospitals because they often overcharge. If you can’t solve the problem yourself, the end of the article gives a very interesting avenue for help (a senator’s office!). Great info.

I just found your site, and I am enjoying it. Does anyone out there know of a prepaid credit card? I have not used credit cards in years, but I now have to travel for work and a credit card is required by our Travel Services and when I check in at hotels. I will pay a small fee, but my research has not produced a low-fee prepaid credit card.
Thanks.

Hi Joane,
I am not aware of any prepaid cards but I believe I have heard of them before. I have posted your question at the MBN Forums. I am sure one of the members over there will know. I will report back here with what they say.
