While this isn't specifically a DEAL per se, I have recently become infatuated with Credit Karma. It is a place to check yur credit score (your TransUnion score) for free. You enter in a little information, and can track your score. This is some quality information. Most credit report sites give your your report, but not your score. Credit Karma does the opposite. They give your your score (along with a nice historic graph of your score), and some good credit simulations and the possible effect on your score.
They make money, I suspect, by offering appropriate credit card and banking offers to you base don your credit score. While not as useful, perhaps, as the money saving features on Mint.com, they feel a little more targeted are realistic.
Cool site. It is free (my favorite price), and I think it is a totally great resource!

Thanks for the mention! The reason we don't show your credit report is because it is free on annualcreditreport.com. We want to bring innovation and value to our members. We will be releasing something that will be much more useful than your credit report in relationship with your credit score in the next few weeks. So bare with us!
