Quickly find higher CD yields
Here's a quick, easy-to-use tool to quickly search for high yielding CDs. For example, this spring you could have locked in 10% in a one-year, federally insured CD. The catch? Well, you needed to belong to the Dearborn Village Community Credit Union in Michigan and the rate was only good for the first $1,000 on deposit.
Still, if you want to find out if you can qualify for local deals, check out BankingMyWay.com. It's free. Just type in your ZIP code to look for deals. You can also search for internet deals, too.
For example, I found out I could get 7.00% on a $1,000, 12-month CD special that Patelco Credit Union is offering for new members. Not bad!

the trick would be to match up those high interest rates with sign up bonuses. then you'd have a deal.

Another site that lists good bank deals is Piggy Banker.
