I personally think Gift Cards are the dumbest idea ever. I can't believe people actually buy them because it's idiotic.
Why not give cash? Cash is much much better, because it can be used ANYWHERE for ANYTHING.
With a gift card, you're limiting the person to only that store.
Why take a $50 bill, which is legal tender anywhere in the country, and reduce this bill to a lousy gift card worth $50 that can only be used in that one store.
You're taking a bill that can be used at 100% of the stores in this country, and you're reducing it to a gift card that can only be used at 0.00001% of the stores in this country. And you're doing it WILLINGLY!
It's another trick by stores to get your money. I can't believe consumers are actually that stupid and buy them.
It doesn't make any freaking sense.
