Commerce Bank offers a small boost to your savings: open a myRewards savings account, and they'll match your average monthly deposit, up to $20 per account.

The stock has a 98% chance of being worth $5-$10, so this isn't an amazing bonus, but it's something for almost nothing (you don't even need to fund your account). The stock will hit your account within a week, and is tradeable 2 days after that.
