Places to Save Money

This has been a great site to get some cash back on purchases when you shop through the portal. It does take time to get the cash back, I probably wait about 3 months or so to get a check in the mail. But, it's just bonus money! I wouldn't go buy things you weren't going to already! I will say closer to holidays they tend to have higher cash-ba... You can shop through the app or with their extension. I put in my link, when you have a referral they usually have a deal to get you and me some extra cash as a reward :)

Ally has been the best resource for me to save and organize my money! This is an online only bank, which had me nervous at first, but I've really had no issues with them in the past few years I've been with them! This is my high yield savings account. My favorite feature is the custom savings buckets. You can clearly organize and set goals for the money you want going different places. This helps me save each paycheck toward things like my emergency fund, car insurance, and travel. It takes away spending guilt when everything is accounted for. Plus the interest is higher than my credit union! I'm able to trasnfer out up to 10 times...

We've been using them for years now and I love Free Tax USA! I used to use free TurboTax when I was in high school/college, but then they started charging me money on the little I made so I switched! This gives free federal filing, and state filing is $16! I usually add some audit protection just for peace of mind for maybe $15-20? I used them when I was single, now married filing joint. We also used them for MN and VA, and the years we were moving between them. Would definitely recommend! I'm fairly sure they don't lobby to make taxes so difficult like the bigger companies.
