I know this isn't always possible for people but bartering is great. I trade boarding services and marketing services. I have my own server, build sites and market them for monthly subscriptions I trade. Its great.
Hi Sachita, it took me pretty much an entire day. I started the month before, with a bank statement to see who I had the direct withdrawls with.

Then I set up my plan. The next thing I did was open the new checking account. Once I got moving, it wasn't too bad. I made a standard form letter to mail everyone that I had the direct wirthdrawl with, as a back up, in case they screwed it up. But no one did, it was very smooth. I had more problems with my employer at the time getting the direct deposits correct, and it was employee sponsored thru them. I MADE my sister join. Now, she is all about credit unions.
