Do any United States credit cards/banks send text alerts when transactions take place? I am looking for one that will send me a text alert when something is charged or withdrawn from my accounts. Are any online banks especially savvy and up to date on such things (even if they don't offer text)? [more inside]

What is the best thing to do with a small amount of money, around $5,000? Savings interest is almost a joke, CDs look attractive or maybe even mutual funds. Preferably the safer the better, as in investing it all in a high-risk mutual fund and losing it would make me cry. I've checked out "Investment FAQ" and it seems as if CDs are the best. I know little about investing but making money doing nothing intrigues me. What would be an expected return on such an investment? Is it even worth locking the money up for something like $10 a month? [more inside]
