Don't Loose That Free Money

Yeah it's hard to believe but we do not usually pay attention to the ways we can get that Free Money to our pockets. Especially in this time of financial turmoil many of the financial institutions are trying to lure customers by giving away free cash rewards, mostly what they are asking for is to just open an account with them.

Recently I got a promotional letter from my credit union about the money rewards they are offering. Open a checking account with direct deposit (I earn $55), get a VISA credit card with them (I earn $20) and transfer a balance on this credit card (I earn $20). Hey that's a total of $95 (don't you call that free money?) and I got it today, and guess what, now I do not have to worry about my cell phone bills for 2 months :)

Now I understand the worries of having to handle few more accounts but at the end of the day you have received some free cash and you can always close the accounts once you have found your purpose.


I regularly follow a nice blog that wonderfully gathers and systematically presents interest rates for savings, checking and CD accounts. Click here to find out several available offers. Also you may want to see the best savings, checking, money-market account and CD rates. Also make sure to keep checking your credit union rates and offers.
