Yes, credit cards are convenient. And the frequent flyer miles or the 1% cash discount is a tantalizing reason to use your card to pay for your snowblower.
But most shoppers don't realize merchants already increase their prices by at least 2% in order to cover the credit card fees.
So instead of giving 2% of the sale to the credit card companies, some creative merchants, such as Snow Blowers Direct, are actually passing the savings on to the consumer if they pay by check.
The discount can really add up, especially on larger purchases like professional two-stage snowblowers. For example, you can save between $20-$60 on your purchase by simply deciding to mail a check.
How does it work?
Follow these three easy steps and you will be on your way to saving money:
1. Place your order online for a snow blower more than $1,000.
2. Choose "Pay-by-Check" as a payment option.
3. Mail your check to:
Snow Blowers Direct
1325 Rodeo Drive
Bolingbrook, IL 60490
