Good lord people. There is nothing wrong with doing this if you are responsible and willing to immediately pay off the credit card. You can then a) cancel it (and take the very minor hit to your credit) or b) pay it off and just let it sit there for a few years.
I hate credit cards, got into trouble with a few in college. But if you are responsible, you can pull this off and it might even help your credit. Buy it and pay it off and hide the credit card.
