I really think that gift cards are impersonal. I've given them as a last resort. I like to give gifts so I can make it more personal and more thoughtful. Your thoughts and ideas please.

I give my friends and family gifts from the heart, i love the look on their faces when they open the gift and the hugs i get because they are happy for what i got them. Handing someone a card is not the same thing as getting a present, it's the thought behind the gift that counts. They know it came from the heart when you took the time to find the right gift.

I hate gift cards as a gift, so I try not to give them. I usually give the person something they like or could use.

No, I like the gift card. The gifts are returned too often. Might as well let them get what they want. You can make the card personal.

If I know the person or they are a reall food friend, I will personally pick something out. If It is someone I don't really know I would by them a gift card.

gift cards just to those who live far away. would rather spend more on the card than give it to the post office. better gift that way.

I LOVE it when ppl give them to me! I dont want to have to pretend I like something or keep something I'll never use because someone gave it to me. My fiance feels the same way as you, as does his family. So it sucks! I get all these crappy gifts that I don't like when I could be getting something I could really use. My fiance has no idea what to tell them to get me, because I don't really ask for anything and I'm not a girly-girl. And sometimes we have no idea what to get, so we give crappy gifts too because he refuses to give them. I think if a person does like them, theres no reason not to give them. But if they dont, they should give ideas of what to get because ppl aren't mind readers.

i like gift cards as long as they aren't to some random place i would never go. the reason i do is because I'm picky and i never know what i want till the last minute. my dad has already given me like 6 watches. i think i know what time it is.

No I never give them as gifts and when I get them I never use them. I need a real present even if I hate it.
