Brilliant! Those old cards are also great for cleaning counter tops (for those of us who bake and roll out dough) and - if caught without a windshield scraper in winter - do a good job of clearing ice from car windows.

I would only do this with a gift card or prepaid debit card, not an expired one from an active account or one with my name on it. People with ill intent find ways to use credit card numbers without needing the 3 digit number on the back.

Otherwise it's a great idea!
