Nothing Is Free - Including Debit Cards

As same as the author said, "Companies are getting more and more clever these days."

Recently, I have unbelievably powerful feeling about it. There are so many companies' promotions and advertisements on the street. Most of these attractive advertisements are some what "too good" to be real, and companies put some "besides & assumptions" by using tiny little fine prints in order to fool customers. For instance, I remember that one national bank had a promotion for their internet banking services. By creating the online banking service, customers would receive $100 in their accounts in 3 months. However, this bank didn't mention on the advertisement that the service is "not free." Thus, lots of customers were paying the charge, but not knowing what it is.

Therefore, Make Sure that "always read the tiny tiny fine print."
