SPONSOR POST: Gasoline credit cards - Discover Open Road

In the variety of gasoline credit cards (banks insist they help saving in the times of high gas prices) it takes long to choose a really beneficial bank product. A lucky result of the long search is a credit card by Discover, which is a bundle features to please ardent car users.

Look what Discover Open Road card has to offer.
First, about the costs. 0% intro APR on purchases and 0% on balance transfers (until January, 2009) give a considerable freedom. Plus, the grace period is rather long (comparing to other credit card deals). Discover made almost everything possible to help the customer pay the balance easily. But there is a blot on the landscape: the bliss ends after July 2008 when the standard APR comes into effect. Besides, be sure to avoid late or missed payments, as the default interest rate is about 30%!

Now let us look what makes this card an excellent option for car owners. You will receive guaranteed 1% cash back on all your purchases. Plus, 5% cash back on the first $1,200 spent on gas and auto maintenance during a year, that is, first $100 each billing cycle. Discover also presents Excess Collision Damage Waiver Insurance with this credit card offer – a useful service for a passionate motorist! Discover Open Road will come in handy as a second card to save on gas and auto repairs.
