Do you use magnetic metals in everyday life?
There are two types of magnetic metals, those that are permanently magnetic, and those that become magnetic as a result of an electrical field, i.e. electro-magnets. * Some games such as travel chess have small magnets in the bases of the pieces, to hold them to the metal board. * Cupboard 'catches' can be magnetic. They close on contact, but can easily be released by pulling the door. * Some necklaces have a magnetic fastener. * Magnets are used to pick up magnetic items such as staples, paper clips, pins, * Small magnetic blocks are used to store paper clips on a desk. * Credit and ATM/cash cards have a magnetic strip on one side. It is magnetic because it contains magnetic metal powder in the plastic * Some screwdrivers are magnetized, to hold the screw prior to screwing the screw into wood or other material. * Cathode ray televisions and computer monitors use an electromagnet to direct electrons/pictures to the screen. * VHS tapes and common audio cassettes use magnetic tape, a thin plastic strip coated with a thin layer of magnetic powder in film form. * In computers, floppy disks and hard disks record data on a thin magnetic coating. * Speakers and Microphones have permanent magnets as part of their construction. * Electric motors and generators have combinations of electromagnets and permanent magnets * Refrigerator magnets use magnetic metal to make them stick to the refrigerator. * A manual compass uses a magnetized needle to indicate magnetic North.

How do you desroy the magnetic strip on gift cards?
The best way to destroy the magnetic strip on any type of card is to cut the strip into pieces (or use a shredding machine that accepts cards). Gift cards, aside from their value, do not create major identity theft challenges because they are generic and not tied to a particular person. Alternatively, one may run a magnet back and forth over the strip and all of the data on the strip will be jumbled, not allowing any use from the magnet rub forward.

Motors and generators are useful devices that use the magnetic effect in a positive way. Several manufacturing processes also use the effect for separating out ferrous metals and detecting flaws in metals. Magnaflux is one example.
