I have been a member with Upromise for almost three years and I really like the idea. You get a percentage of your spendings in an account for education. With what college is going to cost in 15-18 years I'll take all the help I can get. You can save on groceries, online purchases, and eating out; for those who didn't know. My biggest problem with it is that the biggest chains of stores and restaurants aren't involved using their brick and mortar locations, only online. The savings are slow to add up. The best way to boost them is to sign up for the credit card they offer. I doubled my savings in three months with using the card vs. just store purchase of 15 months. Anyway, it is a great concept. Just wanted to see who else is using the service.

i wish i wouldve found upromise a long time ago. I just now have signed up for it this year im done with school. the good thing is you can use it to pay off your schooling too. Its a great organization If you can get your family and friends behind u helping out you will be suprised with what you can save over time. well good luck and your kid will appreciate what you do for them when they are ready for life.
