Firstly, I dont think you need to buy a grey card. A grey card can help manual exposure as 18% grey lies in the middle of histogram on DSLR. A grey card is more useful nowadays setting manual white balance. Most DSLR's have a custom mode for white balance requiring a test shot. This test shot is taken of the grey card in light of any real photos. White balance should be spot on.
