SavedPlus Giving Away $3,000 to Wise Bread Readers

Editor's Note: The contest is over! Thanks for participating. We're emailing the winners Dan K, Susan H, and Kimberly R right now so be sure to check your mailboxes!

SavedPlus, a free savings tool that automatically deposits a small percentage of your purchases into your savings account, is doing a huge giveaway for Wise Bread readers! They are offering two big giveaways:

1. $1,000 giveaway:  A random drawing exclusive to Wise Bread readers.
2. $20 for first 100 Wise Bread readers who try out SavedPlus features.

SavedPlus works a lot like your bank’s “keep the change” programs — except it is even better! SavedPlus is completely free and even more flexible. On average, SavedPlus users save an extra $205 a month. About.com names it one of the Top Three Apps for reaching your savings goals. See how SavedPlus works:

How to Enter the Two Giveaways

Giveaway 1: $1,000 Giveaway

Follow these three easy steps to enter:

1. Download the free SavedPlus App for iPhone or Android.
2. Go to the SavedPlus website and register your account (click on the “register” tab).
3. Leave a comment below this post saying “I registered!” Make sure to enter your email address in the “E-mail” box (see example). Please enter the same email address you used for the SavedPlus registration so we can track you down when you win!

The $1,000 prize will be divided among 3 winners:

1. $500 grand prize winner.
2. $300 second prize winner.
3. $200 third prize winner.

Giveaway 2: $20 for First 100 Readers Who Try SavedPlus

We’re especially excited about this second giveaway. Instead of a giveaway based on luck or skill, this is simply a generous free $20 from SavedPlus to thank you for trying out their program.

To enter, simply follow the same three steps described above — and then add one additional step: Link a savings or checking account to your SavedPlus account. Your $20 will be deposited within two weeks of the accounts being linked.

About Our Giveaway Sponsor

Saving money takes a lot of will power. Anything that can make the process automated and painless can make a huge impact. With just a few clicks you can set up SavedPlus to create an emergency fund, save for a mortgage payment, or even set aside donations for charity. In fact, SavedPlus has teamed up with local charities like United Way of Silicon Valley to offer customized donation options. 

BarbainBabe — the blog founded by LA Daily News reporter Julia Scott — sums it up best:

“Once set up, SavedPlus allows you to set a savings percent (5-20%) to be transferred to your savings every time you make a purchase. SavedPlus offers flexible savings, putting the choice into your hands. SavedPlus allows you to save often, by transferring money into your savings with every purchase; save a little, by transferring a percentage set by you; and save without thinking because SavedPlus automates your savings!”
