Putting aside a chunk of money to purchase a house in five years.

Reason: savings bonds are low‑risk and earn interest over years. They can’t be cashed in the first 12 months and carry a 3‑month interest penalty if redeemed within 5 years, so they’re better for multi‑year goals (around 5+ years) than for short‑term needs.
