Did you know if your air conditioner stops working, your homeowner’s insurance won’t cover it? Same with plumbing, electrical issues, appliances, and more.
Whether or not you’re a new homeowner, a home warranty from Choice Home Warranty could pick up the slack where insurance falls short and protect you against surprise expenses. If a covered system in your home breaks, you can call their hotline 24/7 to get it repaired.
For a limited time, you can get your first month free with a Single Payment home warranty plan.

Every week, Aldi Finds offers new and helpful home goods that are likely an upgrade if you're unhappy with whatever you've been currently using, and the prices are lower than any "dupes" from Amazon or other retail marketplaces.
Many shoppers have already switched to Aldi for weekly groceries to combat rising prices in the grocery stores, but Aldi is making it even better by expanding the home goods section to compete with both price and quality from other stores.
