Take savings bonds to your financial institution (bank, credit union, etc. ) to redeem them. Generally, you need to wait a while in order to receive "full value" on savings bonds because they have a lengthy time to maturity. If you redeem too early, you may not get face value, and in some cases you may not get what you paid.
