Tag: business cards

Back when I started my new job (December 2007) I was given a brand new box of business cards.

In my previous jobs in the newspaper business, business cards came in handy. But in my current job, where I primarily sit behind a computer all day, I rarely have any need (or request) to hand out a business card, they seem rather pointless.

Fast forward to January 2009, and our office moved. We packed up and the whole operation moved a mile or so away.

Of course that means a whole new box of business cards, with a new phone number, new address and the like.

But I still have 95% or more remaining in that first box.

So here’s the question:

What can I do with these old cards (other than simply tossing and recycling them)?

I’m open to any and all suggestions. Lemme hear your thoughts in the comments.
