Turns out, the year it was made, Volvo had many prob- lems with the computers. Now I'm bearing the brunt. Last year, I paid $761 so it could pass inspection. This year, it's esti- mated that the repairs to the car's computers will cost $1,200. What am I supposed to do? My trustworthy mechanic won't touch these computer repairs and has sent me to the dealer. I feel like I'm at their mercy. -- Elaine, Pennsylvania Dear Elaine: You're pretty much stuck because mechanics, as well as car owners, are locked out of onboard computers. As you have discovered, you are at the dealer's mercy. You might want to consider selling the car once it's in tip-top shape. Good used cars are at a premium these days and are bringing in top dollar. Good luck. Dear Mary: Soon we will be pay- ing our last mortgage payment. I know when you pay off your car you receive the pink slip, and the title is transferred to show you are the sole owner of that car. What do you get when you pay off your home loan? -- Chris, email Dear Chris: A "Deed of Trust" securing the mortgage was recorded with the County Recorder (mak- ing it a matter of public record). A document known as a "Full Reconveyance" must be recorded in follow up to the debt being paid in full, which also becomes a matter of pub- lic record. The lender, or the com- pany which is servicing your mortgage, will com- plete the document and send it in for recordation. Once completed, you will receive a fully executed and recorded "Full Recon- veyance" by mail. This will show that the County Recorder has received it and recorded it, according to the laws of the county in which the property is located. Look for it in about 30 to 60 days after you make that final pay- ment. And, may I be the first to con- gratulate you? This is a momentous occasion! Dear Mary: How can I remove a magnet from my car that has become part of the car? I've tried the goo- gone/heat gun/plastic putty knife method to no avail. HELP please. -- Karen, email Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate Dear Karen: Do not heat that melt- ed-on magnet. Instead, warm it using direct sunlight or a hand-held hair dryer rather than a heating gun. Lift the edge of the magnet using a non-metallic blade, such as a thin plastic spatula. Do not use a metal razor blade or steel paint scraper. Spray under the edge of the magnet with window cleaner or soapy water to lubricate the surface of your car. Continue lifting and removing the magnet. Clean off any gummy residue using a common cleaner like Goo Off. (Read the label first to be sure it is safe for automobile finish- es.) Wash and wax the area of your car to remove sol- vent residue. Do you have a question for Mary? Email her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2135, Paramount, CA 90723.

Free and reduced-price lunch applications Application forms are being distributed to all house- holds with a letter informing them of the availability of free and reduced-price meals for enrolled children. Applications are also available at the principal's office in each school. To apply for free or reduced-price meal benefits, households must complete an application and return it to the school for processing. Applications may be sub- mitted at any time during the school year. The information households provide on the applica- tion will be used to determine meal eligibility and may be verified at any time during the school year by school or program officials. Requirements for school officials to determine eligi- bility for free and reduced-price benefits are as follows: For households receiving Food Stamp, CalWORKs, Kin-GAP, or FDPIR benefits – applications need only include the enrolled child(ren)'s name, Food Stamp, CalWORKs, Kin-GAP, or FDPIR case number, and the signature of an adult household member. For house- holds who do not list a Food Stamp, CalWORKs, Kin- GAP, or FDPIR case number, the application must include the names of all household members, the amount and source of the income received by each household member, and the signature and correspond- ing Social Security number of an adult household member. If the household member who signs the appli- cation does not have a Social Security number, the household member must indicate on the application that a Social Security number is not available. Under the provisions of the free and reduced-price meal policy, the determining official(s), as designated by the sponsor/agency, shall review applications and determine eligibility.
