“Danger of Debt” Contest--$1000, Jan. 31 deadline

I subscribe to the Consumers Union newsletter, and I learned about this organization’s “Danger of Debt” Contest.

From the newsletter: “We know you’re furious about the recent wave of credit card interest rate hikes – especially since it appears the banks did them to beat a new February law that will crack down on their abusive tactics.

What better way to channel your anger than to capture it in your own drawing, cartoon, photograph or other image – and possibly win $1,000! That should help pay off those bills!

Consumers Union’s “Dangers of Debt” contest is returning again this year to highlight unfair credit and lending tactics, and you have until Jan. 31 to submit your entry. Put your passion to work and help us spread the word about bringing some common sense reforms to credit and lending practices in the United States.”
