I give gift cards that way the person can buy what they like and will use what they buy.

Chile, you need to sit him down and show him the fisting video in the ass douching thread and tell him to straighten up and fly right or else . . .Or better yet,for Valentines day hire some hairy oily dude to come over and personally fist him.
When he's done crying peek around the corner and say..."What did I give you?"  I graduated bitches!!! 12-19-09   | |

okay offer accepted from whistle....and now I'm going to have a nightmare about this Lamont looking dude's vienna sausage. I have given the card back. Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian, any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. | |

StillGotIt said: Okay...gift cards can be great but I do not feel they are necessarily appropriate for everyone. Some people love gift cards, others of us, dislike them depending on the circumstances. My spouse asked me what I wanted for a gift, and I told him that I would love a new radio in my car. Instead of getting me a radio, he gave me a gift card with a large amount of money on it. I have yet to use the card. You see, money is not an issue for me. If I wanted to get a radio myself, I would have done that long ago. To me, giving me a gift card says, "oh...here you go hon..I didn't want to take the time to do something nice for you so if you want it, go get it your damn self". Thus, the evil vengeful bitch in me is thinking about cutting up the gift card and giving it back to him
 Are you kidding me?? shopping is FUN and you can find EXACTLY what you want | |

I hate getting them for adults, because they can better appreciate the thought you put into a gift if you actually took the time to figure out what they want or might like.
For kids, I am not against it as much, simply because I knew as a kid I loved getting gift cards or checks (in addition to toys and all that) and going to pick out what exactly I wanted, provided the gift certificate/card wasn't to some place like Joanne's Fabrics where there would obviously be nothing I'd want. | |

I hear ya!!!
I'd just prefer a wad of cash myself Today I told the master I would like a cover for the street directory in my car, and a new street directory while he is at it. So he calls me from work to tell me those books are $50!!! Why don't I get a SatNav? How much are those? I ask, he tells me they are about $100. I wailed, but that is twice as much! So he gets me the cover for $18 and gives me the directory from his work car inside it. 
oh boy | |

If you know me then you should be able to figure out a gift that I would like or enjoy having. If you don't then why the hell are you buying me anything for a holiday? just put some cash in the card. The Most Important Thing In Life Is Sincerity....Once You Can Fake That, You Can Fake Anything. |
