Bacon Tip of the Day

I'm an Adult! I'm Not Apart of Your System. I Don't Need a Credit Card!

I've been told by so many friends, family members and financial gurus about how we all need credit cards in order to get by these days. They say without a credit card we can't get an apartments, a house or other loans. More and more these days decisions seem to be based on your credit score. They say because of that we should get a few credit cards and just be very responsible with them. I respectfully disagree. I believe the system is designed to make you think you need a credit card to survive because they want you to get one and fail. It's a flawed system so I say let's boycott it.

My husband and I wanted to spend our Saturday doing something different so we decided to find the best coffee shops in San Diego and visit as many as we could in one half day. We reviewed the top 10 lists of coffee shops in different areas of San Diego county as well as Yelp reviews and then chose the most unique and highest rated to visit. We only got to about 4 when our heads started exploding with caffeine so we will have to continue to find the best another day. So far we found that San Diego has some pretty cool coffee shops out there. Here's our reviews on the best coffee shops in San Diego County  1.  Cafe Calabria - North Park This place made it top several lists and their coffee is served in other top coffee shops around San Diego, so it must be good!  Atmosphere:  Very big and fancy as far as coffee shops go. It feels more like a restaurant than coffee shop atmosphere, but it definitely is a casual sit-where-you li...
