Pappa John,

Sorry, can't help you with finding magnets, but when you do ... some info i thought might perhaps be useful for you and travellers esp., (assuming it is true and you hadn't heard):

Someone I was speaking to told me he had put a magnetic (fridge) card in his wallet and that it had demagnetised all his credit cards!

(a link that seems to verify this: http://money.howstuffworks.com/credit-card3.htm )

Good luck!
