Pimp my bank card!

My bank recently came with a really kick ass idea. Customers get the unique opportunity to design their own bank card! You can send in any design you want to create and receive a working bank card with your design on it. Does that rock or what? They're offering iPod Nano's for the design of the week and a Vespa scooter for the best card of them all. I'll be pimpin' mine next week for sure!

Is it open to everyone? I could understand most of the rules (say 60%) by guessing but not that, lol!

@Jamal> It’s only open to people having an account at that bank. I really LOVE the idea. I’ve never seen anything like it. You might wanna show it to some people working at the bank you have an account at. Who knows they’ll like the idea!
