About this episode

Inflation is hitting everyone’s budgets — including those of small-business owners. To kick off this episode, Sean and Liz talk about how inflation is impacting small businesses, and how you can still shop local as prices climb.

Then they answer a listener’s question about the smart way to earn sign-up bonuses while protecting your credit score.

Also, we’re running a short, two-question survey. Please share your feedback to help us improve the show for you.
