Now I only have a small amount of shares and would like to make small monthly (or maybe bi-monthly) purchase (about $50). With P&G, the commission ($1.02 per share and $50 can buy less than one share at current price) is lower than Sharebuilder which charges $4 per trade. Though I can use my Costco membership to get some discount (20%), the fee is still a little higher. P&G's program is good for regular small purchase while Sharebuilder is good for a bigger amount to reduce the cost. The main reason I didn’t choose Sharebuilder at this time is fees.
