Will that be cash, credit, or chocolate?

In his comment on our last post, Willy Callit mentioned one peculiar item we ran across:

Why on earth would anyone bother to keep a chocolate Nordstrom’s card for, apparently, decades?

I can’t really provide an answer to that one. But I can tell you who would bother to grab it out of someone’s free box …

Nordstrom Chocolate Charge Card

I was just fascinated, especially considering it’s gotta be pretty ancient. (Nordstrom hasn’t used that logo in a looooong time.)

So I picked it up … although I already know it’s probably going to end up getting chucked into the ever-growing pile of stuff destined for my next sale. (See also: the yard sale catch and release program.)

    [...] I joked that I’d bring them to a party and leave them there, but honestly I’d be afraid someone might die. I think I will just put them next to my ancient chocolate credit card. [...]
