The promotional information that is mailed to you for you sign up for a new credit card sometimes contains a mock plastic card in the envelope. Don't throw it away. I find that it works wonders on scraping pots and pans with little effort and without harming the pots and pans.

Great tip! I also give those "fake" credit cards to my kids to play with. I'll tell them that they got some mail. They feel like big shots. They have a play store and they use them with that.
They also can be used in arts and crafts to spread glue, etc. (01/12/2007)
I used one to scrape frost off my windshield early one morning. (01/12/2007)
