Keep The Change
November 29, 2006
Bank of America is running a strange little promo called Keep The Change. Basically, whenever you use your Bank Of America card, they’ll round your purchase up to the nearest dollar and put the change in your savings account.
For the first three months, they’ll even double what goes into your change jar.
It seems like an easy and painless way to add a few bucks to your savings, if you’re already a Bank of America customer.
