smart head teller

April 25th, 2008 at 10:13 pm

I bought a jumbo c.d. at a new bank in a different town in January. They were advertising 4.8%
Of course, all the good rates are gone now and the highest I can find is 3.4% and I have a c.d. coming due next weeek.

Yesterday, I get a call from the head teller at the new bank. For a short time, they will be offering c.d.'s paying 4% and she wanted to let me know. You better believe that I will be there next Thursday when my c.d. matures.

The braves won last night, the stock market went up and I had a no spend day, plus won 2 games of mahjong, so $5 will be added to the challenge.
Prev. total $8794.00
today 5.00
new total $8799.00

    Good for you Ima. It is always important to get to know the people in your banks. That's why I like to physically go in occassionally.

    Thats great that she took time to call you. I know my bank has a callable CD at 4.00% APR with a $10,000 min.
