Sunday Edition - November 2, 2025
Good morning Member
I hope your coffee’s warm and your morning is off to a good start. While tidying up the other day, I found an old poster—wrinkled edges and all. It instantly brought back memories of how our bedroom walls once said so much about who we were back then.
So here’s today’s question: What poster did you have on your bedroom walls? Share your answer in the forum—I can’t wait to see which names and faces made your room come alive back in the day.
Oh, and before everything else, have you checked out our brand-new Sunday Classics Playlist? It’s a collection of all your the winning songs from our weekly feature, lovingly put together so you can enjoy a trip down musical memory lane anytime you like.
Now, settle in with that second cup and let’s get to today’s stories—a “drug deal” you’ll be happy about, a grocery trick that will save you cash, a new scheme you should be on the look out for, and many more!

Do red cars cost more to insure?

You may have heard the myth that red cars cost more to insure, often with varying reasons why. The truth is, the color of your car has nothing to do with your premium. Insurance companies are more interested in your vehicle’s make, model, age, safety features, and your driving history. What’s not a myth, though — is that people really can save a ton of money by switching insurers. Check out Money’s car insurance tool to see if you could, too.
