You could use each card 3 times. It's only for August.

Should have known better to read the link. Its still only 10 per swipe not 100, so you have to do 180 swipes.

Yes.

Not me. The merchants. I just drop it off and then come back later and pick it up.
People have more patience here :)

Easy for you to say. You're just dropping off the cards. How about the poor guy doing all that swiping.  :)

The owner won't. The worker doing hundreds of swipes will stay the same.
