Weekly Savings Tip - Economic Stimulus Payment On The Way

The U.S. government began distributing economic stimulus checks, several days ahead of schedule. Tax filers who qualify and who opted for direct deposit may receive their checks as early as this week.

Review your finances before spending your stimulus check. Consider using this money to pay off any high-rate loans, such as credit card debt. Or begin building an emergency fund.

April is Financial Literacy Month, so take this opportunity to learn more about your personal finances. Visit www.FeedthePig.org for more money-saving tips.
