THE NIFTY GRAPHICARD FOR SHOPAHOLICS - 5 July 2006

Just about everyone has a loyalty card somewhere. Problem is this tends to get forgotten amidst the numerous cards collected. So we were pretty surprised when one of our reviewers, who's just this side of a shopaholic, flicked out an ultra-thin loyalty card he had gotten during the Great Singapore Sale. With one difference. It has a thermal rewritable face that allows personalized messages to be displayed on the silver area each time there's a transaction.

Rather nifty if you stop to think about a card that can now provide updates on points earned, particulars of instant winner games, and details of special offers each time. On the other hand, you'll also have to swallow the advertising that inevitably comes with it. Win some, lose some.
