And it advertises, "no limit" This sounds too good to be true.

Can anyone burst my bubble:

And, if anyone finds out, could this promotion be applied to an existing Driver's Edge account, or is it only available to new accounts?

Promotions only apply to new cards, generally. In this case you would get the rate the 6% reverts to for new cardholders after the year. I think its 3%.

well thats still $16,666 in purchases you'd get 6% back on. How much gas do you buy in a year?

Our gasoline expenses are prolly $2K/yr, but our groceries total $12K/yr. It is mine and my wife's only regular splurge/hobby. We buy mostly organic foods at Whole Foods, aka, Whole Paycheck.

Let's assume, I qualify for the 6%. Comparing this to a 5% grocery/gas rebate card, I'm getting 1% extra on $14K (my gas/grocery expense), or $140.

I think it would be worth it to open a new account for this marginal rebate, even if I could only do it the first year.
