I was making a transfer from checking to savings last night and included $0.10 I'd received from a bank. Yes, that's 10 cents! I thought it was a little ridiculous, but couldn't come up with a valid reason not to transfer it, as long as the transfer was free (and especially since I was making one anyway). I also have a student loan I was paying $60 a month on that will be paid off next month. (Yay!) That $60 a month will go into savings now every month. I'm already living without it and won't notice it at all, but my savings account will love it. Funny you should post this today.

And, seriously, how long does it take to pull a Discover out of your wallet? And, don' forget, you also make extra money because YOUR money can stay in the bank earning interest another month, too ( since you pay credit cards a month in arrears ). My whole site is about me tracking my snowflakes...and if people don't believe how much it can save up, look at it this way...for very little of my time invested, I am up $6,778 ( and this is only what I have actually received in hand ) in May. That means my little snowflakes are adding up to more than $1,000 a month. And, I have over $2,000 I have already earned through my snowflakes...and I am technically just waiting for the $ to show up in my mailbox in forms of gift cards, checks, Paypal paments, etc. I haven't even added that to my total. If someone can't see the advantage of the little things, then they are definitely missing the big picture!! And, with the economy the way it is right now, that is sad indeed.
