A lot of places are offering Discounts on Gift Cards

this Christmas season.

I recently purchased a $25 GC for Jamba Juice and got a free $5 extra.

I'm considering going to Togo's tonight before class because they're giving a free 6" sandwich with the purchase of a $25 GC.

I mean, these are all places I frequent anyhow, so... why not?

I was actually thinking of buying gift cards for the remainder of the people I was thinking of buying gifts for.

Wow, that sounds like it's pretty good. I hope this helps answer your question. Take care of yourself!

I try avoiding buying them as gifts, although I will say once I got a $100 GC at Jack in the Box for my partner. I put it in a little sleeve, then found a box that fit it just right and wrapped it, then found a slightly larger box and wrapped it, then a slightly larger one than that...

I managed to nest 13 boxes around it, and in the end it was in a box the size that holds a mini fridge.

It was hilarious to watch him open it on Christmas morning, to say the least.

To be honest I usually don't go for gift cards either. Though after thinking about it I might go to Five Below for the rest of what I have to get.

I've only once had an issue getting a gift card that I wasn't able to use. Though to be fair it was from a family member who doesn't know me too well. The card for a restaurant I very rarely go to.

Most of the time I get gift cards it is usually either iTunes or Amazon. If not those then it's one of those gift cards that can be used anywhere.

I still use the gift cards I get for the places I don't regularly frequent. I just have to go out of my way to go to said place to use it. whee

Thats good.

As for that one card. I probably would have used it eventually if I had not lost it.
