There are some such clubs that don't have you the consumer in mind. Prior to signing up for any group purchasing plans, H would be wise to: --Avoid paying any fee before comparing prices of products ad­ vertised by the service with those readily available. Stay away from clubs that de­ mand prolonged membership agreements. There's no way to be sure how long the firm will be around. --Realize that the most you're ever going to save is 10 to 20 percent. Any outfit that promises discounts above that is most likely being reckless with the truth. --Not take too seriously those offers of free gifts. --Be aware that credit con­ tracts are never very easy to get out of. --Have other members of your family, and perhaps an attorney, study any contracts before signing. --Check with all available con­ sumer protection agencies. The Better Business Bureau is also a valuable resource. Press for all available information regarding the company that has approached you. _____ Women's World Statistics show that women con­ trol 80 percent of this country's money--and they've got IOU's for the rest. divided between 77,541 lay people and 17,090 professional people.
