I just checked my account $7.70, I didn't realize a purchase from Circuit City would go into my savings.
As far as the 529 plans, invest your savings into the stock market right now

, I think it is better to go with the Discover cash option and put it in an ING Direct account earning 3%.
My 401K, a.k.a. the "Titanic Fund" is not doing all that well. Right now cash is the best option.
I am just going to keep the Upromise and hopefully getting pleasant surprises that a vendor I use is now part of the program.
Once I get myself one of those little critters, I will open 529 account.
