I send gift cards to my grandchildren who live out of town because I have no idea what they need/want/already have. If I have to ask them what they want, I might as well let them just buy it with the gift card. We used to spend a lot of money shipping gifts to the grandchildren. Now we include what we would have spent on shipping as part of the gift card. They can actually buy something better with the additional money. I like the idea of buying gift cards at a discount for yourself. Neat way to save on regular spending. Thanks for the tip. Good article on pros and cons of gift cards.
