My inner child is cringing at the thought of all those tickets going to waste.

  What did you think they did with the tickets after you redeemed them. They were always destined for the landfill. I worked at a Dave & Buster's as a tech. We were required by corporate to destroy any redeemed tickets, usually by shredding them. The shredder would go on the fritz because it was not designed to run 8hrs a day 7 days a week. When it did they would bag and bleach the tickets. Eventually I heard that they had outsourced the destruction to a mobile document shredding company.

    An inner child doesn't see that far ahead... we're not talking about someone's inner adult, after all.

    Wha, bleach the tickets? That sounds like way more hassle then it's worth. A strong lock on a dumpster should be enough. If someone really wanted to take them then sure, they can have the ultra cheap Chinese made stuffed animals that cost next to nothing for D&B.

      I recall reports of people dumpster diving for the tickets. They were bagged separate from the foodstuffs which made dumpster diving fairly effective. One 50 gallon trashbag full of tickets was probably enough to get some of the higher end electronics stuff. That was not cheap. Though tickets were an expensive way to buy electronics vs cash at an electronics store.
