Budget Freak

Last night, I decided to take advantage of the $50 sign up bonus that I talked about yesterday on a Citibank Savings Account. I don’t think there’s much harm in having too many savings accounts, and it’s hard to pass up a free $50.

Well, less than 12 hours later, when I was checking the Morning Deals on Consumerist, I found another promotion for the exact same Citibank savings account, this one with a $100 sign up bonus!! (Link: Citibank $100 sign up bonus) D’OH!

So by signing up last night, I made $50, but if I had waited until this morning, I could have made $100! What a cruel, cruel world. I sent Citibank a nice email telling them about my dilemma and asking if I was eligible for the $100 sign up bonus. Maybe I’ll get lucky and get another $50. Fingers are crossed.
