More ways to reuse old tickets

Here is another idea for a fun way to recycle your old transit tickets from The North by Northwestern, a blog about student life at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. This is for those of us who have a lot of old tickets or transit cards.

52 old tickets. Julia Gang suggests making a deck of playing cards. She used CTA (Chicago) cards, but Washington, DC transit cards actually would actually work better. For those who are also readers of my Asian Trains blog, so would Korean train tickets.

You can also make an UNO deck. I think you may be able to do this with only 40 cards.

Julia even has a clever idea for keeping your deck together.
