1. Have a contest?
   .-= kcinnova´s last blog ..Helpless in Haiti =-.

   1. Sounds good.

2. As apparently you don’t have a “normal” phone I think you should sit in the next bar, ask for the “normal” phone and call for 500 min all your friends in these places.
   After that, ask for a taxi to carry you home !

   1. Gattina, I rarely go to bars.

3. give it to a favorite friend or relative.

   1. Gigi — tht thought crossed my mind.

4. We have had a calling card for several years now and it’s amazing how in those odd times we’ve had to use it. It does come in handy. Rarely… but it does… sometimes.

   1. Kay — before my cell phone I always carried a calling card.

5. Gattina’s idea’s a good one 🙂
   .-= Nicole´s last blog ..#2 Photographing a Solar eclipse =-.

   1. Nicole — yes, but some of the others are better!

6. You can donate it to a soldier or his/her family . . .

   I’m so glad you’re back on! It was way too quiet for about 24 hours!
   .-= southlakesmom´s last blog ..Spiritual Emergency Kit =-.

   1. Excellent idea!

7. I like Southlakemom’s idea – donate it to a solider/soldier’s family.

   Or have a contest and give it as a prize.

   Or find one of those old fashioned superman change rooms (aka phone booth) and reach out and touch someone!
   .-= Jenn@ You know… that blog?´s last blog ..Liar McLiarpants! =-.

   1. I am leaning toward donating it to a soldier.

8. My first thought was to have a giveaway. But all of the ideas above are good ones!
   .-= Church Lady´s last blog ..Lord, Hear Our Prayers =-.

   1. Church Lady — I love it when my friends help me think.

9. Find a family of a missionary and give it to them.

   The soldier is a good idea, but those countries don’t seem to be big places where we have troops.

   Or a giveaway contest would be good.
   .-= Mocha with Linda´s last blog ..Too Young To Be This Old! =-.

   1. Linda — I don'[t think the card is limited to just those countries. A soldier or a missionary sounds like excellent advice.

10. I like the donation idea!
    .-= Mama Zen´s last blog ..The Message =-.

    1. Mama Zen, so do I!

    Some ladies in our church collect those and send them to the U.S. Armed Forces people at different places in the world. Cell phones have cut back on these.

    I do have a very nice man in Nigeria who is trying to help me collect on my fortune. Send it to me so I can call him more often if you’d like. Money would be better, I still owe him a couple of $K so I can get my inheritance.

       If you hurry you can make it to our car club picnic. I may not go because my little Mustang II doesn’t go out in the rain. It may still be raining.

       I saw this ‘Washington.edu’ comment come in. They are nice to you guys. I suppose it is one of their guest houses you’ll be staying in until your stuff comes via boat.

          And isn’t that Thom nice. He never did come look at my ceiling fan. I don’t think anybody did from the link I left. 😉

          1. Jim — I looked at your ceiling fan, but I didn’t leave a comment.

12. you could call your local women’s shelter and donate it to them… I’m sure they have plenty of ladies show up there who could use the long distance to call relatives for assistance…

    1. Tina — another excellent idea!

    2. Tina — another great suggestion.

13. I didn’t think it was specific to only those three countries…but given that, a missionary family is a GREAT idea — especially a college student HERE whose missionary parents are THERE…
    .-= southlakesmom´s last blog ..Buy Crayons for Valentine’s Day =-.

    1. Kelley — it is a US based card, so the calls would have to originate here. And like you, I don’t think the card is country specific.

14. I’m all UP for SouthLakesMom’s ideas too! Sounds great! IF the card is still any good. Does it have an expiration or anything?
    .-= Melli´s last blog ..Friday’s Fave 5 =-.

    1. Melli — excellent question. The activation number hasn’t been scratched off the back, so I thought it was new. I didn’t check for an expiration date. I also can’t find it. I think it may have gotten packed.
