Grande Prairie-specific things to know
- Move the due date, not the money. Auto lenders, insurers and phone companies often change a payment date to match your pay.
- A loan for a loan is a warning sign. If you regularly need a payday loan to make another payment, a free credit counsellor can help you rework the budget.
