Francesca’s closing: What’s next for Boise malls?

Francesca’s, a favorite women’s boutique at Boise Towne Square Mall and The Village at Meridian, is shutting down all its stores for good.

Winter Storm = Higher Heating Bills?

Heads up: natural gas prices just shot up big time—right before a major winter storm is set to freeze most of the U.S. That means if you heat your home with gas, your bills could climb, especially if this cold snap sticks around. The spike is happening because everyone’s cranking up the heat, but supply isn’t keeping up. Pro tip: if you can, layer up and dial down the thermostat to save some cash! #Business #Industry #WinterStorm

What Dave Ramsey says about Detroit debt lawsuits

Facing a court summons over $7,000 in credit card debt, a Detroit-area caller was panicked about wage garnishment and aggressive collection tactics. Dave Ramsey’s advice? Don’t let fear push you into a payment plan you can’t afford. He explained that wage garnishment doesn’t happen overnight—there’s usually a 30-day window, and creditors often settle for less than the full amount. Ramsey even called the odds of full collection 'statistically zero.' If you’re in a similar spot, consider negotiating a lump-sum offer you can actually manage. Has anyone here dealt with debt collectors or court judgments? What worked for you? #Business #MakeMoney #Detroit
