What should I do with credit card carbon copies?

Let 'em Rip

Destroy carbons and incorrect charge slips. Paper shredders are not just for offices any more! You can get an affordable shredder for home use. Better yet, tear the receipt in half so that part of your account number is on one half and the rest is on the other half. Throw each piece in a different trash can for added security.
