‘Tis the Season to Save for the 2011 Holidays with CommonWealth One Federal Credit Union Holiday Club Savings Account

CommonWealth One Federal Credit Union encourages thrift and savings for all its members, as part of its dedication as a credit union to its members with a better way of life as their trusted financial resource. Each January, CommonWealth One opens up the Holiday Club Account for new bank deposits and fund transfers from members. The principle of the Holiday Club is simple, encourage members to save money now for the upcoming 2011 holiday season for travel, gifts and entertainment.

Instead of relying on credit cards to pay for bills to pay for the next holiday, with this account, members are prepared and have cash in hand. Each month, money is deposited into the Holiday Club account and accrues interest monthly at a great rate. Then in November, those funds are transferred out of the Holiday Club account and placed into the member’s CommonWealth One checking account.
