They did not. That stuff is basically a loss leader for them.

From what I recall with the Target incident, their cost is something like $2-5 for each replacement card, so it's not entirely trivial. If you requested a new one on a regular basis for no good reason, they might put a stop to it one way or another.

As far as peace of mind goes, since the consequences are so mild, I wouldn't worry about it.
