Did you know...

....that those god awful, good-for-nothing Kardashian blobs had their own pre-paid debit card? The idea was that they would brand an "exclusive" card with their name, jack the fees and scam the unwitting teen girls who idolize them. Anger.

Anyway, they pulled the card off the market due to outcry over the out-sized fees that the sisters were charging.

Here's a sample:

While regular bank debit cards are typically free and don't charge any fees, a 12-month Kardashian Kard cost $99.95 just to own, including a card purchase fee of $9.95 and 12 monthly fees of $7.95. After the first year, consumers would have to continue to pay the $7.95 monthly fee.

On top of these initial fees, it cost Kardashian Kard users $1 every time they added money to their card, and it cost $1.50 to speak with a live operator. If they wanted to pay their bills automatically using the card, they were charged $2 per transaction.

Apart from that, the sisters only managed to sell 250 cards in the month the product was live.
