in the short-term, a savings account with an online bank can net you ~1% interest, while many banks/credit unions with local branches are 0.05%. most of the online savings accounts allow 6 withdrawals per month (they'll let you do more, but charge a fee), if you pair it with a checking account, you can transfer your expected monthly need in one or two planned transfers to your checking account. any other options that may result in a higher yield will either tie up your money for a set length of time, or expose you to risk of losing money. i wouldn't recommend gambling on short-term stock gains if you need the money during the off-season.
