$4 Prescriptions at Wal-Mart
In case you hadn't heard, Wal-Mart is trying a new program to help with the high costs of prescription drugs. In the new pilot program, over 300 generic drugs will be available for $4 per refill. Just in case you're one of the four or five people who don't live near a Wal-Mart, Target will be matching the program.

Wal-Mart is currently testing the program in 27 states.  Check Wal-Mart's Pharmacy page to see if yours is on the list. 

 

Clean Your PC
Everyone's looking for ways to squeeze that last little bit of performance out of his or her PC, especially with Windows Vista right around the corner.

AARP has a host of ways to clean up your computer and improve its performance.

 

Calculate Your Retirement
Even if you just started working, retirement is "just around the corner" for us all. Just how well are you doing in planning for your retirement?

CNN/Money has a calculator to help you figure out where you're at and what you need to do to get where you want to be.
