Keep the Change Girls!!

Well this weekend we decided to do something for our girls that should be a good way to force us to put away money for the girls. At Bank of America they have a "keep the change" savings account where basically whatever change is left from your purchase will go into a savings account. So say you spend 3.50 at Starbucks, your transaction will be rounded to $4.00 and the other $.50 will go into the savings account. On a side note I dont think you can buy anything at starbucks for 3.50 anymore. This is a good way to put money away without even missing it, because it is only a little at a time, but over 18 years it will add up :). We have one for Aida and one for Kallison and if they get money for birthdays, Christmas, etc it will go right to these accounts also, pretty cool way of saving money for the girls Harvard education, or medical school, they haven't really decided yet...
