Dollars &
$ense
By David Uffington
Even though the economy

appears to be springing back on
a number of fronts, most people
still aren’t willing to increase
debt right now. But the holidays
are coming, no matter the state
of the economy or your person-
al financial situation.
More and more stores are
offering layaway again, not only
for holiday shopping, but for
everyday items. Layaway lets
you spread out paying for your
items without the high interest
of credit cards.
With layaway, you’ll put
down a small deposit that
includes a service fee and then
make regular weekly or bi-
weekly payments until the item
is paid off. Even though there is
a small fee for holding layaway
items, it won’t be nearly as
much as credit-card interest
would be.
In the past, not all types of
merchandise could be paid for

are more willing to expand the

that your merchandise will be
available.

The Future of Hard Water Treatment

looks like this. Here are 14 key reasons your home needs it.
GMX is less expensive to
purchase, install and
operate than name-
brand softeners…
and we’ve been installing
systems in your
neighborhood for
15 years! Here’s why:
• Uses NO Sodium Salt • Increases Your Home’s Value
• Uses NO Potassium Salt • Protects Plumbing Fixtures
• Wastes NO Water • Boosts/Sustains Water Heater Efficiency
• Has NO Tanks • Conserves Water
• Uses NO Electricity • Improves Skin & Hair Condition
• Requires NO Maintenance • Safe for Plants
More Satisfied GMX Customers!

• NO Ongoing Operating Expenses • Safe for People with High Blood Pressure
Pat and Horace Gill of Albuquerque

“We spent nearly $5,000 on a water treatment system when we first moved into
our home in 2005,” recalls Horace, a retired firefighter. Despite the investment,
however, the Gills still had excessive calcium buildup in their pipes, water heater
and fixtures. Worried that the potassium in their softener system was affecting
Horace’s hypertension, Pat convinced him to look into GMX. Now, after nearly a
year with GMX, the Gills are glad they made the switch. “We flush our system
every six months,” says Horace, “and there’s hardly any buildup at all.” They’ve
eliminated their need for expensive and harmful salts, and Pat says she’s saving
money in other ways, too. “Our detergent use is way down, probably by half,” she
says. “When I wash dishes, it foams right up, and we’ve eliminated the need for
dishwasher additives to prevent streaking.”
GMX systems use a high-intensity magnetic field to induce molecular changes in your
water. You get ALL the same benefits as softening the water without ANY of the has-
sles. GMX technology is long proven and has been the product of choice by savvy
New Mexico consumers for 15 years. Every customer is protected by a 90-Day Money
Does Your
Water Heater Back Guarantee and a Lifetime Warranty.
