I know this is the wrong board, but ??? about asking salary before interview

I posted on the career board but noone answered and I have to call back before 6.

I am looking into going back to work (if the money is good enough, my old job isnt worth going back to financially). I sent out my resume and received a phone call back and they want to set up an interview for Monday but I have no idea what the salary is. I dont want to waste my time or their b/c if the money isnt where I want it to, I will not take the job. Should I inquire about the salary before hand or wait until the interview? What should I say?

I would wait until you meet with them for an interview. Right now, you'd probably get some lame answer, like "the salary is commensurate with experience....blah..blah...blah..." It's worth going for the interview and seeing if you are even a fit for the job & then talking $$$. JMO

Whatever you decide "good luck!"

I would definitely ask while on the phone to confirm the appointment. You can simply say what is the expected pay range for this position? and kinda go from there.
