Special Summer Offer for BECU Members

Consumers’ Checkbook is a 100% independent, nonprofit organization, which means we never take money from the businesses we rate. You can rely on us to help you make informed decisions that save you money while supporting local businesses.

For a limited time, BECU members can get a one-year digital subscription for just $1 instead of the normal discounted price of $14.

Easily find ratings, reviews, advice, and undercover price research on auto repair shops, dentists, doctors, plumbers, and 120 other local services.

Checkbook is nonprofit, independent, and provides unbiased information. You can trust that we'll always give you honest answers.

Unlike HomeAdvisor, Yelp, and Angi, we don't run ads or take referral fees from businesses rated.

“Even businesses that don't fare well in the ratings have grudging respect for [Checkbook]'s attention to detail.”

- Seattle Times

“One of the best things about Checkbook is how thorough its ratings are. At least 10 people must rate a company before it's included in a survey. Staff members go undercover to get actual pricing information.”

- Seattle Post Intelligencer

“How do you know if you're getting the best deal? One way is to check Consumers' Checkbook.”
