Printing middle grey with an uncalibrated printer is uh... kinda meaningless.

I've been using this for my photo adventures; I try to keep it in my wallet at all times (I worry about it getting discolored by rubbing against other cards though) and whenever I notice that the white balance is gonna get fucky (esp when there are multiple light sources) I whip that out and take a picture of it in the same scene.
edit: Also people love to use grey cards for getting exposure right but it's complete bunk science; if you're using the raw workflow (if you're fine tuning white balance you almost definitely are) you should shoot as bright as practically possible and not too bright to prevent clipping and adjust exposure as you see fit in editing.
