Can I expect the bond will be purchased the same day I request it? will I get a competitive offer?

The most economical way to purchase long bonds or any other Treasury product, is directly through them. You need to have a Treasury direct account to accept dividends to deposit to your bank. These services are free of charge. If you go through a broker, they will charge a fee, both to buy and to sell, which will cut into your direct deposit amounts. Call (800)722-2678 for help and instructions. Good choice and Best Wishes.

buy it direct from the treasury

if you would rather just buy a bond fund, yes, vanguard has some of the lowest expense ratios around.
