I sent my credit card and driver's licence through the wash.

AND the dryer. Do you think it demagnetized the little strip?

[BikeWriter]

1. Ooh, could be!

[crispini]

2. The suspense is killing me!

Can't wait to go through the checkout line and find out! :rofl:

[LoZoccolo]

4. Yeah, go to Walgreen's and buy something small.

When I just want cash I buy a package of Listerine strips, or some soap or shampoo.

[crispini]

5. Yes, fortunately the ATM card

did NOT go with them. So I'm sure it's still usable. :woohoo:

[BikeWriter]

10. That's good, I'll bet the banks are on Holiday hours..

[Jamastiene]

3. Well, here's one way to find out.

Go buy a small bottle of cheap water and see if it still works. If it doesn't, take enough cash with you to pay in cash. You'll find out without going into too much debt.

[crispini]

6. Sure enough.

My museum membership card survived very well considering it's cheap laminated paper! :P

[Rabrrrrrr]

7. Those processes cannot demagnetize the strip

You need an electrical field for that.

However, the magnetic strip is probably fucked up, though not demagnetized.

[crispini]

8. Is that a technical term?

Fucked up? :silly:

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. It is!

That is the meta-category of damage. "Demagnetized" is a specific category within the meta-category.

:D

11. IMO, you should use both of them immediately

to drive out and buy a new plasma television. Oh, yeah, and a package of Corn-Nuts. Don't forget those.

[lizziegrace]

12. Corn nuts?

Pork rinds!

[ChoralScholar]

13. That'll do.

15. Congrats on 700 posts!

:toast: :hi:

[Left Is Write]

14. Credit card through the wash?

Is that the same as money laundering?

[crispini]

16. Hee!

[rateyes]

18. Damn....

I wish I had read your post before replying. Sorry. :o

[rateyes]

17. I thought...

money-laundering was illegal! :+

[no name no slogan]

19. probably not, but now yr credit and driving records are SPOTLESS

:silly: :hi:

[gardenista]

20. well, that's one way to clean up your credit and driving record.

The Moran way.

:P
