Do-Not-Call Registry

The federal Do-Not-Call List allows you to add your name and home and cell phone numbers to a federal list that telemarketers are legally obliged not to contact. The Federal Trade Commission estimates being on the list will cut down on about 80 percent of unwanted solicitations. The agency expects as many as 60 million phone numbers to be registered in the first year. Marketers will have to check the list every three months. Those who call people who have been listed can be fined up to $11,000 for each violation. A consumer who has placed his or her numbers on the list and still receives calls can file complaints online or through an automated phone system. (Charities, pollsters and -- surprise, surprise -- politicians are exempt from the list.) Other exceptions: A merchant can call someone on the list if the person has bought, leased or rented from the merchant within the previous 18 months. It also can call if a person has inquired about or applied for something from the merchant during the previous three months. Your registration is effective indefinitely. Once your register, you will notice a drop in telemarketing calls about three months later. The World Privacy Forum offers another great resource that lists the registry and nine other programs that allow you to opt-out of receiving material.

Most recently it added cookware and a line of small appliances (microwaves, mini-refrigerators, wine coolers, etc.).

Free Credit Report

If you've ever applied for a credit card or received a bank loan, you have a credit report, and a credit score. Lenders, landlords and credit card companies use these reports and your credit score to determine if you can be trusted with their money. The downside: Some analysts estimate that 50 percent of the reports on file with the three major credit bureaus have incorrect information. A new law requires the three major credit reporting agencies (Experian, Equifax and TransUnion) to each provide one free credit report per year to anyone who asks, either in writing or online. (Note: Getting your Vantage Score, a.k.a. your credit score, which lenders also use, costs a little extra. It ranges from 350 to 900 and is based on about 30 factors.) You can apply for your free annual credit report online, phone 877-322-8228, or print out and mail this form. If you apply online, you will have to answer a few personal questions to prove your identity, so it's good to have your financial records handy. Before you request your report, read this excellent article that describes common myths about credit reports. If you need more than one report per year, and you don't qualify for a free report, you can view your report online for less than $10, or free if you try a credit monitoring service. These services check your reports regularly for suspicious activity that might indicate someone has stolen your identity. However, there also is a method available to prevent anyone from opening credit accounts in your name. It is called a "security freeze," and most states have laws that allow people who haven't been a victim of identity theft to add one to their accounts for $5 to $10. If a security freeze is in place, you won't need a credit monitoring service. Consumer Reports has compiled a list of states that offers security-freeze protection and how to get it done.

FuelEconomy.gov

FuelEconomy.gov, a site created by the Environmental Protection Agency, allows you to look up the estimated miles per gallon for the new or used vehicle you own or plan to buy. In addition, you can get information on greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution ratings and safety. The automakers run their pre-production cars through testing to determine the fuel efficiency figures, and then the EPA re-tests about 10 percent for accuracy and makes adjustments for real-life city and highway driving conditions (the average vehicle these days gets a pathetic 20 miles per gallon, about the same as 1980). The site also has tips on fuel economy and specs for a new breed of electric hybrids. One, the Honda Insight, gets 57 mpg highway, meaning you could drive from Washington, D.C. to Chicago on single tank of gas.

Gazelle

Gazelle purchases secondhand electronic equipment, including cell phones, MP3 players, digital cameras, laptops, GPS devices, gaming consoles, camcorders, satellite radios and portable hard drives. U.S. consumers produce more than 2.63 million tons of electronic waste each year, but only about 330,000 tons, or 12.5 percent, is kept out of landfills. Gazelle either recycles or refurbishes each gadget it receives. "Too often when people think of recycling, they rush straight to smashing things into bits for parts," Gazelle's founders say. "We believe that reuse should always come first. If your GPS unit still works, why not keep it in circulation and get paid for it? If reusing isn’t in the cards, then let us recycle that vintage camcorder. We think of it as ReCommerce." Gazelle provides a free postage-paid box with each order. Once it receives your item and verifies its condition, you are notified by email when your check will be sent. The process usually takes about a week from the day your item arrives.
