Every once in a while I miss the good old days, when the airport agents neglected to collect the paper SWUs (then called VIPs) and you could then re-use them.

This was before my time.

AA mailed you actual stickers and then you attach them to the BP? Was there a way to request them ahead of time or did you have to produce the sticker at the check in desk?
