I just recived a mail offer from Discover

Look at the fine print

One or two purchases required every month

It could be like $1.00 or even $0.32 but 100% of these purchases will accrue interest
(NOT AT 0.00%--more like 16%--21%)

100% guarantee you will have a MINIMUM FINANCE CHARGE like $1.00 or $2.00

Not saying it won't work for YOU

I'm not gonna' do it

0.99% or 1.99% (NO FEE) for life would be better for me

But they think 7.99% + $50.00 fee is good for me

SURE IT IS...

NOT!!!!!!

It is at $0.00 and has been for a while

I have seen 2 variations....one where you have to put a min. of 50 bucks on it a month..which I would pass on. The 2 purchases for 1 buck a pop probably is ok if you can keep track and have a large enough credit limit to make it worth your time.

Was this a new card offer or on an existing card?

It is a new card and it is the second one.

Let me ask you this,

If I barrow 5000/- and did a $1 per month purchase, how will this work?
