Working well for me. I aslo found a new free service to get the best CD rates out there though an auction. I got a 4.25% on 6-mon CD. THey are like an eBay for CD and savings rates. I heard about it on Fox News. The site is Moneyaisle.com. Check it out. Great time to put money into short term, 3 – 6 – 12 month CDs and keep reinvesting at a higher rate. Working well for me.

CDs are a nice place to keep you from touching them unless they're really necessary. But hopefully even getting money out of a CD early (if it's a big emergency) is more attractive than a loan...even with the penalty. Glad you liked the post!
