The more cool cards you have the more you want to spend.

I bought 4 T-Mobile iPhone 6 Pluses. One for my little sister, my parents and myself. I am now $4300 in debt.

I thought it was cool to use my Chase Saphire Preffered to get my free points...

What is the best way to store and forget my cards?

I love when they say "Wow this card is heavy", "wow I have never seen a clear card" etc...

hahaha that reminds me when I was a cashier and saw centurion american express card for the first time.

*touch touch*.... it's a metal!?

I'm sure it's awesome to carry around cool cards, but you really need to pace yourself otherwise you won't be able to carry any more of those awesome cards in the future.

I tend to put mine in a "safe place" and then subsequently forget where that safe place actually was...

lol @ this thread

lmao @ op

I'm sure the guys in the CSP's marketing department were **bleep**ting their pants when they thought of making their card metal.. how many people here have app'd for a card due largely to the fact that it is made of metal?

Raise your hands..
