Save a Buck: No-Fee ATMs

Automated teller machines generated some $4 billion in revenue last year in fees of up to $5 per transaction. But convenience doesn’t have to be costly. Try these websites:

• Allpoint offers fee-free ATMs nationwide at retailers such as 7-Eleven, Target, CVS and at some 1,100 financial institutions that are part of its network. Enter an address or ZIP code to find one near you, or e-mail info@allpointnetwork.com.
• MoneyPass lists fee-free ATMs coast to coast—and includes driving directions.

You could also consider an account at an Internet bank, such as Bank of Internet or EverBank, which reimburses for some ATM fees.
