Updates on My Wallet, Penfed CDs, and FIA Billpay

I found my wallet! Just as I suspected, our daughter hid it. This time, she figured the laundry room was a great hiding place; at least it wasn’t the trash!

Now, I’m tempted to put one of those Little Buddy tracking devices on both my keys and my wallet for the future! Then, every time I lose one of them, I’d use the pay per use feature for $.99.

After losing my wallet, I’d happily pay a dollar to find it right away!

Announcements

5% Penfed CDs. Remember this deal? My 5% CD at Pentagon Federal successfully funded last week. Did anybody else have success on qualifying for the CD?

Free Federal Tax Software. Tomorrow is the deadline for the H&R Block Free Federal Premium Tax Filing.
