Unless you're paying cash for your next purchase, it is vital to check your credit score. A mistake on your credit report
can cost you a lot of money over a 5 year loan. Fortunately, you can get one free credit report per year from all
three credit reporting agencies (Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax). All three credit agencies are independently
operated, so you must get a free credit report from all of them.
