Thank you!

But I can’t take complete credit for that idea. Yes, I usually take a sandwich bag and fill it with water, put the cards in facing inward, and freeze. Ta da!

I actually tried this once but failed…for two reasons.

1) I remembered the number, so I could still buy stuff online.

2) It was too easy to get access to when I was really weak. Turn the hot water on in the sink, and I had my card in less than 5 minutes.

Good points!

But freezing them does keep them out of my wallet so I’m not tempted to use them while I’m out. Unfortunately, I haven’t memorized my numbers. ;-)
