Default Re: 2006 $20 Challenge Information

Something kind of related:

I have an account at Bank of America. They started a program called "Keep the Change." I signed up a month or two ago, but this is what they do:
You use your debit card and buy something, say $6.42. They round up to the nearest dollar, and move the extra in your savings account. So $.58 goes from your checking account into your savings account. For the first 3 months of being in it, Bank of America will match your "Keep the change" money 100%, and from then on they match maybe 5%?

Anyway, I think it's a neat way to help remind me to save more!
