All over the place where I live. Here's a link to just one:

4.25% FREE Checking Account Called Lagniappe Checking at Campus Federal Bank- Current Rates, News and Information about Checking Accounts | Go Banking Rates

Open up 2 accounts for a total of $50K at 4.25%. Easy as pie. Seems like half a dozen institutions around me offer it based on the signs I see going down the road passing in front of them.

A quick survey of local banks shows current rates between .85 and 1 percent for amounts between 10k and 50k.
No, the best part is how I'm right. 4.25% up to a balance of $25K. Bank's numbers, not mine. You mad? The south sucks in many ways, but in this way, it's beating the crap out of wherever you live, lol.

This great checking account rate offer is for locals only living in Louisiana.

Where to Find the Best Savings Rates - SmartMoney.com

Look at the bottom, and I promise you that's not all the banks doing 4%+. Look around.

Different banks run different "promos". what they do is offer great rates to attract customers so that they can lend more. Find a bank with a shitty checking interest rate, and they are going to be more happy to issue you a loan. Find a bank with a great checking interest rate, and vice-versa. Back in 2010, for example, my googling reveals that there was a bank in TX that was open to all TX residents that offered over 4% up to $25K. Currently, they have dropped down to 2%. Did you get in on that? Why not?

Well never fear, I did your homework for you just to prove to you and others that if you look around you can put your money to work for you: http://www.banktexas.org/currentrates.htm

There you go. 3.25% up to $10K. Open and available to YOU! But you know what? You probably won't do it anyway, so I'm wasting my time other than to prove to you what you're pissing away in interest with low rates.
