More I-bond facts
One additional thing. You were correct to say that to buy these latter in the month does count for the entire month. If you want to buy it towards the end of the month this is o.k. but do allow time for the bond to be issues. This may take several days. I once bought some i-bonds 3 or 4 days before the end of the month and they were issued the next month. I actually missed out because I did not allow enough time. They may have resolved this issue but not sure.
If you purchase these via the web (electronically) it has an easy 4 step process using your router number on your check to pay for these. It use to be you could charge these ( Uncle Sam wised up). I use to earn 1 % on my credit card with the purchases. No more... at the time it was sweet.
