Here are some more information for Gallon Jerry:
Obama's CARD Act was intended to protect consumers from predatory credit card company practices. Credit card companies argued against the new rules saying that these restrictions would actually result in less products available to consumers. Many Americans are wondering once again "How will this affect me?"
With the new restrictions coming in to play behind the already impacting economic crisis, the credit card times they are a changin'.
How the new credit card industry rules will affect you will depend on which credit cards you depend on. There's an impact on most every kind of personal credit cards and debit cards. Business credit cards are not addressed by The CARD Act.
It seems at every turn where the new credit card regulations cut a fee, the credit card industry and banks will just make up that money somewhere else. That doesn't mean that there's no help from the bill though as at least with most of the predicted fees consumers will know for example that they are paying an annual fee as opposed to being surprised by an exhorbant late fee because their payment was delivered by 10:00 on the day it was due. Whether or not there will be more savings isn't clear but apparently there should be less fee gauging surprises.
Big Changes Predicted
Student Credit Cards: The CARD Act prohibits campus marketing campaigns like free pizza and requires that applicants under 21 either offer proof of income or get a parent to co-sign.
Analyst predict that there will be less student card offers. They also expect interest rates to go up and credit limits to come down but say the credit industry will probably offer some token rewards to entice students. Teens and young adults are more likely to go for prepaid cards.
High Fee Cards: High fee credit cards, sometimes called "Fee Harvesting" cards are those charging high upfront fees with low credit limits. These high fee cards are not expected to survive the ax from CARD.
Analyst expect that especially for those with bad credit, while fees may go down, interest rates will go up. First Premier has already replaced one of their high fee credit cards with a high interest rate card.
Debit Cards: Debit cards have never offered high returns to banks except for those hefty overdraft fees. The new rules makes these high fees a no no. This may mean that banks aren't going to automatically cover overdrafts without prior arrangements and some experts predict banks will attempt to offset the losses with an annual fee on debit cards.
Balance Transfers: While balance transfer offers may still be available, experts predict that the days of sweet teaser deals like zero percent for 12 months may be a thing of the past. Rates that have been as low as zero to two percent are likely to hike up to seven to nine percent.
"Teaser rates aren't going to go away, but they're probably not going to be as lucrative for the consumer as they were -- you're going to see a higher rate and a shorter introductory term," says Jerry Straessle, of consulting firm JLS Associates.
So far Citi bank is still in the teaser rate business, offering 0 percent for 15 months for qualified customers.
Debit Cards: Will annual fees replace overdraft fees?
Overdraft fees have been the crux of profit on debit cards but the crackdown in the new credit card rules on overdraft fees will mean that some banks will not automatically cover overdrafts unless cutomers opt in ahead of time. Some credit industry experts predict that banks may start charging an annual fee on debit cards of $20.00 to $30.00.
Prepaid Gift Cards:
Companies profited billions from expired gift cards and reduced balance gift cards. As of August 22, 2010, now all gift cards must be redeemable for five years. Analyst wonder if stores will start charging an upfront fee to buy gift cards and whether or not the market would bear it.
Other changes experts predict following The Card Act rules:
*Rewards are likely to be less "rewarding" and harder to earn.
*Gas card discounts may drop to only one or two pennies of savings per gallon.
*Low interest credit cards will likely have a higher low.
*Low interest cards are also going to be harder to qualify for.
*Companies are likely to offer more creative gimmicks to distract from the higher fees.

Energy Saving Power Tools
Visit any big box home store and it appears, this summer, power saving power tools are all the rage. Replacing their gas powered counterparts, these battery or propane operated lawn maintenance tools run on alternative energy sources that both lower emissions and boast less maintenance.
Some of this year's highlights include:
Ariens Co. of Brillion, Wis., has unveiled the $3,299 "AMP Rider" electric-motor mower, run by rechargeable lead-acid batteries and never needs an oil-change
Valley City, Ohio-based MTD Products Inc.'s Troy-Bilt brand has a $169 seven-pound lithium-ion battery trimmer that can run up to 45 minutes on a single charge.
No more annoying pumping with Frontgate's battery-powered sprayer that will disperse 18 gallons of liquid per single battery charge.
People-powered push mowers are returning with a vengeance. They have similar designs, but now promise to be quieter, easier to maneuver and lightweight. Some even include attachments for grass catchers.
Earthwise makes a cordless electric mower that provides the ease of operation of an electric mower without the cord. The rechargeable 24 V battery lasts up to 45 minutes. Their cordless chainsaw still requires oil, but it runs on an 18 volt NiCad battery that is compatible with other Earthwise 18 volt tools.
The RoboMower, running anywhere from $1000 to $3000 is a true energy saving device – cutting back on both fuel and people power.
Everyone has cordless power tools, but the most efficient are the ones that share a single 18V battery. This means you can use the same battery for all your lawn tools.
One of the most extensive versions of this is offered by Black & Decker who admits to having a bigger selection of cordless trimmers than the corded version. With one 18 V battery you can charge all your Black & Decker battery-operated tools which include surface sweepers, chainsaw, lopper, hedge trimmer, grass trimmer, cultivator, pruning saw, and power scrubber. All of these products boast: " No pull cords. No trips to the gas station. No gas or oil to mix. No gas to store or spill. No fumes. No tune-ups or maintenance."
According to Joe Newland, Black & Decker's product manager for outdoor products. "There are tradeoffs, and what you lose in power, you gain in convenience and weight." He mentions that these products are particularly popular with female users. "They don't want to start with filling it. They just want to use it."
From the numbers, the public is loving these products, and as they become more widespread, prices are coming down. Even the cost of solar lighting and batteries have seen large reductions from a few years ago. Home Depot reported 2008 a record year for non-gas outdoor power equipment. In addition to the regular electric and battery operated mowers, Home Depot sells a version that runs on a 16.4 ounce propane container.
Even heavy duty, gas tool manufacturers are jumping on the "alternative energy" bandwagon. Husqvarna has just unveiled a soil cultivator for $899 that runs off one large lead-acid battery. They have also introduced an "EcoSmart" campaign featuring similar products including their manual push mower and solar-battery robot "Automower".
The government is supporting this new, cleaner technology and incentives are being reviewed that would give consumers a 25% tax credit (up to $1000) toward their purchase of eco friendly lawn, garden or forestry power tools. In addition, the Environmental Protection Agency issued new rules that require manufacturers to reduce emissions from new lawn and garden equipment by 35% in the next few years. If these companies want to remain in business, they have to start examining new, alternative forms of energy.
Currently Husqvarna is testing a high-powered, battery push mower; and Arien plans to introduce a battery-powered snowblower this winter. However the general consensus in the industry is one of caution. No one is quick to unveil a product that may not have the power to do the job. "It's one of those things where we want to be careful," says Roger Phelps, Stihl's promotional communications manager. "One thing customers are demanding is for performance to still be there. It's cool to have a battery-operated mower, but if it only gets halfway across the yard, that's not very cool."

Higher beer tax floated to balance state budget
OLYMPIA – Senate Democrats today suggested a higher tax on beer may be a way to balance the budget and end the 22-day-old special session. Their plan would hike existing state taxes by 50 cents per gallon on mass-market beers. Microbrews would be exempt.
