We tried the freezing method first and then when we kept breaking into them we just cut them up. If you travel a lot for business, I can see keeping one for reservations, but really, other than that, having them is just asking for debt. I'm not talking about a weakness either, I mean only buying when you have the cash for the item. If you want to be truly frugal, that is being truly frugal.
