Is there a card with an interest-free period for cash advances ?

Last year I found a credit card that had an interest free period on cash advances. My existing credit card (as well as almost all other cards it seems) charges interest from the moment I withdraw the money. So unlike other uses of my card, I can't avoid paying interest.

I thought the card I found last year was from Nationwide, but if it was then they no longer do it. Does anyone know of such a card ?
