If you have a large (>10) stack of cards to redeem, they will usually check the backs for the dates. One or two or five tends not to trigger this response. So if you have a card you forgot to redeem on a previous trip, try turning it by itself or with another current card.
BTW, a $5000 card was given out on last Friday, 3/23. I was there last weekend and accumulated about 70 cards - 2 @ $3, the rest at $2.
