Here’s an idea that seems so simple once someone has actually pulled it off. A lot of people have rewards cards or membership cards for various stores they shop at. Instead of carrying around a bulky amount of cards in your wallet, try scanning them and putting the image on your iPhone or comparable mobile device. You’ll save yourself time, space and a headache on your next trip to the store.
