A Loan Promotion That Lasts Fewer Than Three Hours? In This Special Case, Yes

DEPTFORD TOWNSHIP, N.J. — Another credit union is tying a loan promotion to the Aug. 21 Total Solar Eclipse.

South Jersey FCU will offer its loan special from 1:21 pm – 4:01 p.m. on Aug. 21 during which members can get a new auto loan at a rate of only .99% APR for 38 months. Personal loans will be at 3.8% APR for 24 months, the credit union said.

The offer is designed to last as long as the eclipse, two hours and 40 minutes. Applications must be submitted in-person at any South Jersey Federal Credit Union branch.

SJFCU said it also has the sold-out glasses that are needed to safely view the Total Solar Eclipse. To receive a pair, members can stop by any SJFCU branch to snap a selfie with everyone’s favorite squirrel from the credit union’s YouTube videos.

As CUToday.info reported here, Spartan FCU in South Carolina, which is in the line of the total eclipse, is also offering a related loan special.
