Thanks to Tonya at mommysavingabuck for posting this offer! Open a free "Complete Savings" account with E*Trade by 02/25/09, deposit a minimum of $1 and receive a $25 bonus within 30 days. One additional bonus: the APY on E*Trade's Complete Savings account is currently 2.5%, which is way above the national average. In fact, my current bank with a competing savings account currently lowered their APY to 2.45%. Looks like we'll be moving all of our savings into this new account. Sure, the percentage isn't much, but I'll take whatever free money I can get.

There are no account maintenance fees associated with the Complete Savings account, no diret deposit requirements and no minimum balance requirements.

I opened my account using an electronic transfer from my checking account with only $1. Once they deposit your $25, you can close the account if you choose, unless of course you need a savings account with a great APY, it is always good to save for that rainy day. (Wouldn't you know my husband's car broke down this morning...it is always smart to have an emergency fund.)
