About Tracy Davidson
Tracy Davidson has spent 25 years in the media industry focused on reporting news and headlines that are relevant to all of us. She has always been passionate about consumer news and dedicating much of her personal time to help make the Delaware Valley a better place to live and thrive.
Her career began as a radio host at several small stations in Upstate NY and then moved into television as a News Anchor at a CBS affiliate also in NY. Tracy has since become a five-time Emmy award-winning News Anchor and Consumer reporter for NBC TV 10 News.
In 2008, she was awarded the very prestigious “Best News Anchor” Emmy for the Mid-Atlantic Region and currently sits on the Board of Directors for the March of Dimes. She was awarded the Sister Mary Vera award for her support and dedication to the women and children of Vera-House. She was honored by another domestic violence shelter, Laurel House, for her work and support of the non-profit organization, and is a staunch supporter of the fight against breast cancer as her Mother is a survivor.
Tracy continues to support her passion for helping consumers by creating and attending events such as “The Great Shredder Event”, “The Money School”, small business seminars, career seminars, DTV Transition help clinics and Phone Banks. These events are attended by thousands of people just like you and me every year because we find them informative and important.
Tracy Davidson is an accomplished News Anchor that works and lives every day to keep each of us informed on the consumer issues that are relevant and important during these tough economic times. She subscribes to a philosophy that centers on staying grounded on the issues that we all face and then delivering content that can help us all make better decisions. The Delaware Valley is a better place to live and work because of the work that she has done throughout the years.

A Welcome Note from Tracy
If you know anything about me or have watched any of my Consumer Alerts on NBC10, then you know I am passionate about getting people good solid information so they can make the best decisions for their money and their lives. I would shout it from the rooftops if I could! But I thought this website would be the next best thing.
Now more than ever I feel driven to deliver information about saving money, making money, finding jobs and really taking control of your finances. I developed this site for you. It’ll have the latest consumer headlines, plus resources I use all the time to find information. I’ll also post my most popular stories from NBC10 and all of the events that are on my schedule. And I want you to talk to me. Tell me what’s on your mind. Tell me about any issues you’re having and I’ll try to help. I’m here to serve and I hope you check in with us everyday here for the latest money saving- money making news.
I’ll have daily blog entries and a list of my upcoming events. And, if you want me to come to your event- just let me know. I love to talk about this crazy business, any kind of personal finance topic, and you may not know this about me, but I’m always available to talk about my faith journey.
And, what sets my website apart from others: Not only do I want you to talk to me, tell me your consumer complaints and issues you’re dealing with, but I will respond and be checking everyday to see what’s on your mind and how I can help.
