   Rating: - Good Product, Perhaps But Won't Fit nuvi 880 MicroSD Slot
   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. Unfortunately, the slot in the nuvi 880 only accepts a MicroSD 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 am pretty dissapointed with the Savers Card.
   
   We couldn't find any hotels to use it at while traveling from southern California to northern California and back.
   
   We also were unhappy about a restaurant that denied a discount (Ihop). I reported it to the membership department but have yet to recieve a reply.
   
   Knowing what I know now, I would not have purchased the card.
