Flavored credit cards?

When I first saw the opportunity at PayPerPost entitled "Mint Credit Cards", that's what I thought. But this is a type of credit card in the UK. They have revolutionized the credit card in the UK by offering a card with the bottom right corner removed. This is the first change to the shape of credit cards in the UK for 37 years. Other than that, they also offer 0% interest on balance transfers until December, giving customers a chance to pay off high bills on other credit cards

In September 2006, Mint launched the Mint Gift Card, which is basically a pre-paid credit card that you can give as a gift. The recipient has the luxury of shopping anywhere credit cards are accepted and you don't have to worry about buying them something they won't like or won't use.

The pre-paid card would be a good thing to get for a teenager when they want to go to the mall. Rather than letting them borrow your credit card, simply give them a card with a set amount of money and they can't go over the limit.
