Punch cards for purchases...

How many do you have? I only have two that I can think of, both from the same store, but one from their Chinese food counter and the other from their coffee/pastries counter. I never remember to give them, so I might have more than one from each area.

Where I NEED a punch card is at the vet's office! Sheesh! Wouldn't matter if it got punched each time I was there, or if it was punched based on the amount spent. I've been there so often since September, I'm afraid to look at the receipts. One week when my husband was out of town, the most exciting thing to report upon his return was that I went all week without going to the vet! Hmpf. Spoke too soon. Last week the dog had (still does) a skin fungus on her ears. Got her some ointment (ointment is one of those words that makes me laugh!). This week it was the kitten. One of his ears STUNK. The tech swabbed it to put some of the crud on a microscope slide, then she swabbed it one more time and got a big ol' gob of goo. YUCK! Vet cleaned both ears, put some other stuff in 'em (antibiotic, maybe) and sent me on my way. Well, after I stopped at the counter to pay. Ugh!

I suppose with three animals in the house, it's bound to happen that we need to go to the vet. I just wish there was some sort of reward program tied to it...like maybe a gift card to Starbucks or something!
