When i save files to be printed at our local Shoppers Dug Mart kiosk,

want gone, i just select and hit delete.
The other day i transferred some photos from the iBook and dragged the
files on the CF card to the trash. When i loaded the card at Shoppers,
those old files were still on the card along with my new files for
printing.

Interesting.

 If you drag files from removable media (CF cards, external hard drives
 etc) to the trash and then eject, the next time you plug that removable
 media back into the computer, the trashed items reappear in the trash.

 Drag them to the trash and then empty the trash and this won't happen.

Did you eject the card from the mac, or did you just pop it out of the
reader? It's possible it didn't write the changes to the card if you
just popped it out, especially if you hadn't emptied the trash.
