I'm not sure if this really belongs in the MS forum, but I thought I'd start here.
I'm looking for a way to earn points while funding a 529 account.
Thanks in advance!
I'm looking for a way to earn points while funding a 529 account.
- I've had no luck finding Gift of College GCs at my local Toys R Us stores, and the fee is not quite as nice online
- I've tried Plastiq, but they cancelled the check, and a chat with them says they don't pay "trust and retirement" accounts
- The plan I have for my child is the New York direct, but the name (New York's 529 College Savings Program Direct Plan) is literally too long to type in the payee section of all my banks to attempt a billpay -- even shortening to NY is still too long; I think there is a limit of 32 characters at my banks
- I've sold some GCs to Gift of College in the past, but I'm not seeing any good deals where I'm not losing more money on the resale than the points are worth
Thanks in advance!
