Amen to that--this thread once again got hijacked! 2.99% is a great rate. I've posted this rate at the same credit union here in MN before (and that posting of course got hijacked just like this one). I used this advertised rate to get our state/county/city employee credit union here in MN to match the rate. I was then able to get the rate further reduced down to 2.49%.
Our credit union, Affinity Plus, allows anyone anywhere to be members for a $25 fee (membership is free to qualifying MN public employees and their family members). With good credit, they will match and beat any advertised rates out there.
