Do you travel?  A lot?  Or just with kids, so it seems like a lot?  HA!  Me too.  About a year ago, my husband got a free trial of something called CLEAR. Have you heard of CLEAR?  I hadn't either.  He used it to get through security at the airport, and called me immediately.  He was able to get through security easily with CLEAR, and he insisted that I sign up, using a free three month trial.  I was reluctant, because I have precheck, but I am so glad that I did.  By continuing to read this post, you are agreeing to our updated privacy terms, which can be found here, and this post contains affiliate links.
