Several times in the last year or so I've read some really great success stories about families earning lots of money for college with Upromise. I have linked family grocery cards, linked debit cards, participated in the H&R Block promotion (earned $15!), bought & registered McDonalds Gift Cards and used eCoupons. We have our kids 529 accounts linked to Upromise and any money we earn is equally distributed among them. But I just haven't seen any big savings add up. Saving for college is a big priority. With our three children born within just about three years, we are going to be hit very hard for a period of time when all three are in college. I'm going over our Upromise account with a fine tooth comb looking for additional ways to save. One thing I have not done is signed up for a Upromise Credit Card. I'm not against credit cards. I just don't want too many. I have several I like and earn nice rewards on them, why would I want another?
Right now there is a tempting offer at Upromise. Sign up for either the Dining Rewards or Gas Rewards credit cards from Upromise and get $25 in your Upromise account after the first qualified purchase is made plus the Dining Rewards card will earn you 1% into your college account from every purchase and 10% from participating grocery and drugstore items and 10% at participating dining restaurants. The Gas Rewards card will earn you 2% at Exxon/Mobile purchases. While there are other cards out there offering higher amounts on any gas purchases, the Dining Rewards card does sound interesting, if not to make a purchase just for the $25!
How are you saving through Upromise? I'd love to hear how you have saved.
