Use Your Own Credit Card as a Hotel Key

Why do hotels bother creating key cards when they can just let you use your own credit card?
Since a hotel key is basically just a card with a number on it, why not simply let people use a card they already have with them.
This saves them time and money on programming new key cards, and it eliminates the need to collect the cards when you check out. As a bonus, it's actually more secure because guests are not likely to lose them, and even if they do, they're not likely going to be in an envelope with your room number printed on the outside.
