You have to remember any type of IRA account you're going to get your arse taxed if you pull it out unless it's a Roth.
Your best bet if you're going to plan and spend it is put it into some sort of savings account. Ideally one with a semi-decent interest rate, though they all pretty much suck right now.
As the poster above said, even getting .75% is better than what your checking or standard savings account will give you. I'd check out Barclay's, it's pretty much the best out there at 1% APY. No minimum and no fee required.
If you're already contributing to retirements, I'd put majority of your spare funds and hold it as cash.

Open up a rewards checking account. I have mine with UCB, I have to do 15 debit card transactions but I also get 2% on up to 25k. I think neighbors also offers something similar.
