Direct deposit works best for me. I have a set amount transferred every two weeks into a savings account at a credit union across town. Since it's automatic, I don't even notice and the CU is so far away, It really has to be an emergency to dip into the account.

A lot of people using the boards have the Disney Visa. We have a Costco AmEx card that we use for EVERYTHING, even fast food. Then we pay it off at the end of the month. So far this year, we have a reward of $150 to use at Costco. You can do this with the Disney Visa or any other card with rewards. We just like the Costco card because the rewards are a little better and we shop at Costco so much.
