That's OK. They weren't tax deductible anyway. You might as well benefit from contributing to a 501c3 organization, even if the amount would be minimal -- assuming, of course, that you itemize. |

The decline of yields for Reward Checking accounts (RCA) has many reasons besides people making $1 transactions. It's been discussed thoroughly in the appropriate thread, but *all* rates, not just RCA rates, have been in decline for some time. An FI can close an individual's account at any time or even give them a preliminary warning if the FI doesn't like how the person is using the account. Some FIs already do this. |

Banks offering RCA's are dead on looking for two things from the customers: 1. How many transactions are they making during the cycle. 2. What type of transactions and how much are they actually spending. Making 10-12 transactions (usually the bear minimum), and each of those for $1.00, leaves no room for any bank to sustain the rates at which they offered the RCA. It has been clearly posted/documented here, of where certain banks will close your accounts, by monitoring 1, and 2 above. At the least, and to fly under the radar, I suggest to stay away from the usual suspects; $1.00 transactions, will kill the deal. |

Cheapoking,there is nothing wrong with setting the autopilot, just to make sure you meet the requirements, and using the card, on occasion, for those accounts you want to make sure stay opened. |

Bump in case they're still archiving Finance threads. Anyone know what the decision was? I now have 3 cards and want to keep this an active thread (yes, I know some of you have many more cards....) |

There is a site that offers lots of cheap, even under $1, stuff from China with free shipping. Don't know how they do it. Don't think these folks are pioneering quality control in China, but there is a lot for the stocking stuffer.
