A balance transfer fee of 3% of the transaction, with a minimum of $10, will be applied to each balance transfer with this offer.

But the OP states 0% on "Purchases" for 15 months, nothing about balance transfers.

are there any 0% non-Citi balance transfer offers out there? I've got a Citi card 0% coming due in August and I'd really like to roll it over but it seems outside of Citi everything's dried up.

You "might" find something here (YMMV and good luck).

Looking at the list though, not much to choose from, especially if you are looking for a no fee balance transfer.

Is there any trick to make balance transfer treated as purchase. Maybe doing it small amount at a time ?

No...you have to actually buy stuff with an offer like this...there are some ongoing ways to use it like the 500 in dollar coins that are being offered right now...some bank accounts allow for a small charge with your open deposit but those can be reclassified as cash advances so YMWV...

there are some banks that treat initial funding as purchases, but YMMV and I don't recall which (I think I had success with B of A), but it requires you opening a new bank account and probably only funding of small amounts.
