Keeping Your Money Safe

Posted February 21st, 2008

To help visually impaired shoppers keep their money safe, the American Foundation for the Blind offers these tips:

• Know the denomination of the bill you give the cashier
     • Ask the cashier to count your change back to you
     • Store your change properly before leaving the counter
     • Keep you purse or wallet close to your body always. Do not leave it open.

The American Foundation for the Blind also provides information on managing your bank account, identifying money, and paying your bills.
