Of course, after the first three months, you'd probably have to make about 10,000 transactions per year (27 per day?!?) to have $5,000 in "extra change" to make the $250 annual maximum (5% of $5,000). But anything helps! I'm pretty happy with my bank right now though, and like Idub, I need all that change to keep my account in the black!
