Surprise Deposit

December 9th, 2010 at 01:31 pm

We bank with USAA and they provide their members a refund of premiums each year in December. It always surprises me! This year the deposit was $38.64, which is up from last year.

I'm adding this money to our escrow account for routine expenses. We were running a little low...now we are not!

I've noticed that several retailers are sending coupons in emails. I just received $5 from Hallmark towards any purchase. And I think I have one from another retailer, too. I tend to find an item worth the amount on the coupon and nothing else, so the item is essentially free.

    Our local credit union offers cash back when using our debit card. In November each year they send a refund check. This year was a little over $80.00. Not bad for an account that has no minimum balance requirements, no charge for checks, no minimum # of debit card purchases.
