Boost your Money Smarts next week at KCTS

Economy still got you down? Sign up for a free Money Smarts workshop and learn how to stretch your dollar. AARP has teamed up with a bunch of experts including folks from the Attorney General's Office to teach consumers how to spend less, save more and outwit the latest economic scams and schemes. KCTS TV's Enrique Cerna will emcee the event, which will be taped and available to watch later online. And while you'll often hear us say there's no such thing as a free lunch, this is the exception. So join us 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. Tuesday, July 20, at KCTS 9's studio at Seattle Center.
