I don't know what my couple folks think. One guy, at one of the stores I buy from doesn't even ask me how much anymore, just rings up a $1k MO. The other store, the girl still asks even though it's the same every time.

For those of you with what I'll call "burner" accounts for MO deposits, how did you establish your pattern? And what other banking, if any, do you do at burner bank? I'm at my condo for 6 weeks and could set up a new account here to help with my MO deposits. Visit frequently throughout the year. There is a WF that allows mobile MO deposits. But I'd rather not have to worry about manufacturing other banking activities. My hope is to max out MO purchases and slowly drain over several months.

you have 24 days to do anything useful with, after that the amounts are minuscule.

Could you share where to find that 1.5% rate at HSBC? All I see are much lower rates:
