Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Without posting any personal information, what's the oldest card or other thing you still keep in your wallet or purse, that you don't even need anymore? (lemmy.world)

My Auto Zone Rewards card is from 2007, hard to think that the card is close to 20 years old now. Last time I used it, I used it to scrape glue off the side of a truck LOL!

I had mine from 1990. When I took my kids to get theirs and checkout books, the librarians faces lit up when they saw it. We bought a house and it got lost. Over 30 years T_T

...didn't get my own card until i was old enough to ride my bike to the library: independence milestone!..

(back then they weren't laminated: cardstock in a vinyl sleeve, transparent obverse, opaque reverse, and that shade of brown vinyl is VERY 1982)
