Our family has nearly $2,000 in our account. The Upromise credit card is very helpful as is shopping online through their site. Plus, several family members are linked and that's added up to over $900 right there. The trick is you have to check out the site to make sure you find out who they have added recently. We were just thinking of doing work on our house and I noticed they had ServiceMagic now listed. So I went through Upromise to find contractors and got $4 in my account. It works if you pay attention to it. This won't pay for my kids tuition, but if it pays for books, fees, some tuition etc...how can you go wrong? I’ve been a member for about 6 years now.

Occaionsally something pops up on there from a restaurant that I go to, or a purchase at the grocery store. The biggest saving is if you get are if you are purchasing online REMEMBER to check and link through their site. There have been a number of times the day after I order something I think about it and realize I could have gotten up to 4% of it put to the savings. I think I have put in about $30 in this time for them, and for free they won't complain. I have been using this for a while ~2 years saving for nephews and neice.

So far we've earned about $35. You can register all your debit and credit cards, as well as grocery cards. When you purchase items in stores, you have to be sure to select "credit" and not enter your PIN, or you won't get the savings. Most of the savings come from online shopping and participating restaurants. Or, you can sign up for their credit card and get 1% back on all your purchases (we don't do that though, just the cards we already have). You can also have your friends and relatives sign up and link to your account. We haven't had much success with this though because our parents are paranoid about sending their credit card info over the Internet. :) I’ve been signed up for Upromise for about two years.
