I almost wish I had done some CDs but the rates were always about the same as my ING account so I didn't. Now CD specials are under 3%! Definitely not doing it now. Crazy!

Then each personal checking has a savings account attached to it with $25. The credit union requires that). Our E-fund is broken up into two savings accounts. One the direct deposit goes into but the rate is so tiny that when the deposits start to build up in there we move it into a money market. Then we took a big chunk of the efund and put it in a CD. We also have a vacation fund. see... to many. 3 checking accounts and 6 savings. blah. oh gosh… we have too many accounts. 3 checking accounts: one joint, then we each have a personal one (The joint account has a savings account attached where we keep our short term savings.
