Four years ago when we started the paperwork to adopt our son I started saving for college, he is four years old now and I have $2,000 of FREE college money just from grocery shopping. If you buy a product that is a UPROMISE contributor you get a percentage of that purchase price put into a college fund. The best part is if a product is $5.00 and is on sale for $2.50 and you have a .75 cent coupon that doubles you only pay a $1.00 for the product but you get a percentage of the $5.00 not the final purchase price. I don’t buy items because they are Upromise contributors. Also, you can sign up your family and friends which will double or triple your savings faster. You do not need to do anything but sign up.
