<prompt> Human: So I recently came across about 2500 worth of savings bonds I received growing up from relatives. Not all of them are fully realized but the interest rates arent great either. Is it worth it to cash these bonds early and put the money in a CD or other instrument that has a higher interest rate then these bonds have? With Allys 2 CD offer Ive been thinking of using that.  <response>: Check the current value and interest rates of each bond on treasurydirect.gov. Depending on the dates they were purchased, some could be earning 3 while others are well under 2.
