Can't remember which one but credit cards were offline for a time with something and places that still had the carbon paper roller things stashed away took them out and used them. They should keep those things around.

Not sure how much good that'll be... A lot of banks are giving out cards where the numbers are only printed, I haven't had one with raised numbers in years.

You could just write down the numbers.

You could, but then we wouldn't be talking about a carbon paper roller thingy...
