The Botox Bank Is Exactly What It Sounds Like
I initially didn't believe this was real, but if you're a New York Botox user who's trying to cut down on the cost of your ongoing injections, there's a new service that might be right up your syringe: the Botox Bank.
A clinic called SmoothMED is now running its own Botox accounting operation, where you can buy virtual units of Botox at a locked-in price. The idea is that you can get exactly the amount you need instead of paying by the area (which tends to cost more than the per-unit price).
Keep the Change — You’ve Earned It!
There’s just something more satisfying about buying that morning coffee from the cute barista at your coffee shop than brewing your own cup o’ joe — even if it has the potential to save you money, right? Guilt-free solution: Bank of America’s Keep the Change savings program — where every debit card purchase is rounded up to the nearest dollar and the difference is transferred from your checking to your savings account. So, when you buy that $2.50 coffee, the program rounds it up to $3 and automatically transfers $0.50 from your checking to your savings account.

Tyra Banks got the memo that traveling in style is all the rage! She arrived at LAX wearing a low-key yet chic ensemble consisting of a long black tee, dark gray corduroy jeans, a cropped leather jacket, and tall flat boots.
