Are You Spending A Bundle?
How does your spending stack up to your neighbors? Do you shell out more each month eating out? Do you give more to charity? A nifty website - Bundle.com - allows you to compare your spending with folks in your area and compare it to other cities across the country.
Being a person who finds this sort of thing interesting, naturally I had to check it out myself. I compared our area to a few random cities in the country and found we Charlestonians behave much like consumers in other cities. The one obvious stand out was the cost of insurance.
