I was surprised how few deals/places it did have. I am an avid entertainment book user. I did not use card once in the year I had it. I live in Seattle and could never find a discount to use, event when I traveled I still found that it was not worth it. I thought this would have those types of same deals. It did not have the same caliber of venues/restaurants as I would see in an entertainment book. As another reviewer said "No fast food places, discounts and attractions or other services. Save your money." I wish I had read the reviews before I bought, don't make my same mistake.
I don't blame Garmin, but many of the merchants don't honor this card. The 4 or 5 places I visited while traveling already had specials that were better than the ones listed with this membership. Several of them looked at the card and thought it was some kind of hoax.
Unfortunately, the slot in the nuvi 880 only accepts a MicroSD card. I ordered the SaversGuide at the same time I ordered my nuvi 880, received both items promptly. I was disappointed in that the SaversGuide software was on a regular SD memory card. The return process was extremely easy, and my account was promptly credited with the return.If the SaversGuide was available on a MicroSD card, I would order one. NOTE: While the online information indicates the card is good for one year, the one I got had an expiration date of July 31, 2009, only ten months from the date I ordered it.
This product freezes up the Garmin every time I try using it. I've tried starting the Garmin first and then inserting the card, and I've tried inserting the card first and then starting the Garmin. It doesn't work either way. When I called customer service, I learned that they are not open on the weekend, so I couldn't get a solution to the problem.
I used this product on a trip through western Arkansas, north and central Louisiana, and Houston TX. It was useless.
