Camp-Friendly Credit Cards

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Lighten the Camping Load with a Multi-Functional Credit Card Companion

— October 7, 2012 — Lifestyle
The Tool Logic Credit Card Companion is an amazing contraption that has virtually every wilderness scenario planned out for you.

Equipped with 10 features, the thin card holds a 2-inch serrated knife, scissors, a magnifying glass, tweezers, a can and beer bottle opener, a screwdriver, an awl, a ruler, a compass and a toothpick -- who would think of bringing toothpicks with them on a camping trip?

Don't be fooled by the tiny blade, which is deceptively sharp and should be used with caution. All that packed into a credit card companion that weighs just over one ounce. With all that jammed into one little slice, your camping equipment is significantly lightened, which can only mean one thing: more beer.
