We are trying to determine what level of auto insurance we need on our new car. My husband  and I are disagreeing on the value for bodily injury. There appears to be three levels of coverage, which are fairly standard at $100K/$300K, $50K/$100K and $25K/$50K. The first number is per person and the second is per incident. If I understand correctly, our assets should be considered when determining which level to buy. We don't own a home and my best guess is approximately $100K. Have any advice? - Amy S.

The thing about car insurance is that most people pay it in two annual installments. So when the bill arrives in the mail, it has a tendency to blow your monthly budget out of the water. But there is a good side to getting an annual or a semi-annual bill - you notice the size of your annual premium which gives you a bigger reason to reduce it.
What follows is a list of monetary and non-monetary strategies to keep down your car insurance bill.

Warranties of all sorts earned a bad name in the 1990s and with good reason. Amid declining profits and increased competition, retailers started marketing 'peace of mind' products to consumers - insurance contracts they called warranties. For retailers the profit margins on these plans were enormous often exceeding 70%. Compare that to the 20% profit margins on electronics and the 5% margins on cars. With warranties, retailers were often able to double their profit of on a transaction.
That might explain why the sales guys aggresively push warranties on every major purchase you make. Many consumers soured on buying warranties because of bad experiences with uncovered items or providers that went belly up. Others began to see warranties for what they are - exhorbitant mini-insurance policies designed to maximise retailing profits.

Want Cheap gas? The LiveCheap.com crowd loves to save a buck or two on gas or anything else for that matter. If you’ve driven anywhere or been online, you’ve probably seen the ads that ARCO saves you 5 or 10 cents a gallon. But does ARCO really have cheap gas? Now many of you in the Eastern U.S. don’t even have ARCO stations in their hometown but Costco or Sam’s Club are pretty good proxies. Our team did some analysis, not all financial, and here is what we found.
