Our mission
is to be a grass-roots organization that works for the benefit of all consumers
to help expand everyone's health, safety and financial freedom.
To that end, we strive to deliver the best consumer tips, clearly explained so everyone can
get the greatest benefit possible and live their lives to the fullest.
We are bound together by our mutual dedication to
seven bedrock principles:
The Unbiased Truth.
Our editorial standards are constituted in such a way as to
deliver proven truth. Money to support
us will only be accepted in ways that do not
bias our mission to serve consumers.
Consumer Value, Positive
Values. We provide the best
consumerwise tips available so you'll receive very high value in return for your
time spent here. And we are also about universal values such as
truth, freedom and conservation.
Plain Speaking. Our descriptions are
always clear and concise, so you'll gain the maximum benefit
from reading our tips and have all possible free time
left. Other sites sometimes provide information to the
point of overload; ours will give you what you need to
know, with links to articles where you can learn
more if you wish.
A Consumer Community. This site is being
founded and built from the ground up by
consumer advocates for consumers. There is always courteous customer service for our
members.
Individualized Content.
We give consumers ways to customize our web pages to their own needs,
such as printable interactive tipsheets.
Entertaining Our Guests.
Perhaps surprisingly for a consumer site, we believe that
if you're going to visit us, we should provide entertainment to make it
a happy journey! You'll be amused with good humor, delighted
with beautiful design, and inspired by the wisdom of the
ages.
Your Vigilant Watchdog!
We constantly monitor news sites and consumer publications to
keep you updated with important news covering
crucial topics such as careers, credit, health care,
homes, the Internet, investing, safety, shopping, taxes, thrift and
utilities.

Here's what we won't do:
- We will never "spam" you: you are always in control of all
email communications, and all emails will remain free of
commercial advertisements.
- Our web site will remain "hype-free": we will provide
only objective and helpful consumer information. While anyone in the world can come
here, keep in mind that some of our advice may not apply to foreign countries.
- We don't allow "pop-ups" on our site. If you ever see a
pop-up while visiting our site, it's probably caused by spyware
on your computer.
- We don't accept gifts or donations from corporations to
pay for any services offered to our members: we would rather see charitable
donations go to the truly needy.
- We don't get involved in political issues.
