DVC Fastpass Exchange Cards? Anyone heard of these?

According to an article in the latest Passporter Newsletter (http://passporter.com/news/news080206.htm), there exists something called a DVC Fastpass Exchange card:

"Do you know anyone who belongs to the Disney Vacation Club? One of Disney’s best kept secrets is the Disney Vacation Club FASTPASS Exchange Cards. These cards are sometimes given as a promotion to new and existing DVC members. Each of these cards comes with two Instant FASTPASS tickets. Put the card in the FASTPASS machine and out pops a FASTPASS ticket that you can use immediately with no waiting to get your next FASTPASS. If you are a Disney Vacation Club member, you may have a chance of being receiving these cards from your DVC rep."

Anyone heard of these? I tried searching the DISBoards but found no example of it. I know that our family hasn't heard of them or received one but thought I'd check and see if anyone else has.

The DVC guides will sometimes hand these out after you do the tour or visit the Centre for something (like handing over a big cheque !!)

They are supposedly only good for 24 hours, but we have never tested that. Always used them up.

Thanks. I was just surprised I'd never heard of them before. Appreciate the response.

We got some on our last December trip. NOthing on our April trip, though..... not complaining at all.

We got them for going on the tour before we bought. Supposedly to make up for our time away from the parks. But we didn't end up having the chance to use them, since we were on our last day, and they didn't work when I tried them on our next trip.
