Does anyone else keep their old Altitude baggage tags?

I have an amenity kit full of bag tags from all programmes. Used to keep them on my carry-on, now I just keep them. For what? I don't know. I like them.
I no longer have any tag on my carry-on. I love when people look at me in the line-up like I don't belong, and then the Concierge runs up, hugging and smiling, and I sit in J. Then the crew comes up, and is so excited to see me! Everybody must thing I'm the kid of an employee. Good on them!

This year we're thinking of hanging all those LH F and other fun BPs

Now I have a full (Etihad First) amenity kit of them. My dad takes the little metal straps and uses them for his ski equipment. Every year, with the fresh delivery, he tries to steal them off of me.

Mine are used in various bags The latest ones are used for the carry on. But may be I should start using my Concorde tags to be different! The CP Executive Platinum is on briefcase that goes to my accountant so it does not get mixd up!

I have all my tags and cards since the elite tier program started, even Prestige when that tier received a luggage tag. Only use the current year ones on my bags though I've seen some travelers with a bunch of years tags dangling from their carry-ons...lots of "expired" ones on others. Below are some of the various designs for the elite tags over the years (haven't included the recent years) and also designs of the CP cards which didn't change each year. (The blue card was was Intair's Bonis program. Intair became CP's regional carrier in Quebec/central-eastern Canada.)

I travel with my old C-Plus Presidents club Gold tag still on my bag. It had a nice proper leather strap and a big wide flat hole that never broke. Usually gets the most looks at the YYC checkin desk - - but less and less . . . . . I probably have around 15 suitcases and carry-ons between me and the Mrs. and the latest tag is always hard to find so there are just a bundle of old tags of hers and mine . . . . Plus the usual FPC Platinum tags.

I'm with you - new ones go on a pile on the dresser and are used to replace old ones as they come off - could care less what year, company or program they are from. They are luggage tags for me, not "look at me" tags. I'm pretty sure I have a selection of E50, SE100k, and BA Bronze and Silver in my wife and my names on the various bags at the moment. I know for a fact she has lost one of this years SE100ks to the baggage monsters already.

But why? Since you don't fly that much or are low rev for the airline, maybe they should sell you the tags. Say the 2 tags cost $20 to $25 everything in, will you buy them?
