SBC OFFERS LOCAL AND LONG DISTANCE SERVICE FOR $48 W/$10 OFF FIRST 5 MONTHS
After I signed up for Sprint local and unlimited long distance service on my home phone for $47.50, I received an insert in my SBC bill that offered the same service from SBC for $48.95 and $10 off the first five months. Since SBC charges $15 for local service, you are getting $33.95 for the first five months. I see AT&T also is advertising a similar plan for $48.

STARS HAS HALF PRICE DRINKS WITH ANTENNA TOPPER
When we were at Stars Drive In getting our 99 cent hamburgers, I noticed a sign saying 50% off drinks if you had an antenna topper from Stars. I had been looking for something to set our new van apart in parking lots. The girl brought out the Star and it now adorns the antenna. Half price drinks, 99 cent hamburgers, 99 cent banana splits (ask for hot fudge instead of chocolate, strawberry and pineapple topping).

ROTH IRA DOES NOT REQUIRE WITHDRAWALS AT AGE 70 ½
The income and tax benefits from a Roth IRA are equal to a standard IRA but the regular IRA requires starting to withdraw money at age 70 ½. The Roth does not have that requirement, allowing the balance to continue increasing tax free. See your tax advisor.
