Thanks for the tip. @ Chris: The terms say purchase one "security." It doesn't specify a stock or mutual fund, so I would assume they would both work. You might want to give ShareBuilder a call to verify; they were very helpful when I called. @ Mike: Give the CASH50 code a try. That one seems to be working. I also updated the post to show the old one is expired. Thanks for letting me know! @ Andy: Good to know Etrade is doing it again! Thanks for the tip.

If we're looking to get the full bonus, could we just open with a small deposit and purchase a mutual fund for free? Looks like the $50 bonus is reduced by trading fees.

A similar promotion is going on again currently, through February 25, and you do not need to have an AMEX this time. They had the same promotion in December 2008. I have taken advantage of both now, so apparently as long as it is new money it does not matter if you have taken advantage of the promotion before.
