WaMu Extends 5% CD Deal

Looks like WaMu has extended their online 5.00% CD for both 12 and 13 month terms. They had briefly lowered rates to 4.50% but now they are back up to 5.00%. This is a great rate and the highest I know of for any FDIC insured CD.

You can only open it online with a minimum of $1,000. Make sure to have less than the $100,000 FDIC insurance limit.
