I still have gift cards I got last Christmas. I really need to use them. Do you have any gift cards that you recieved that you need to use?

Heh! I have one from 2 years ago!! I have tried to use it once, but nothing caught my eye, it isn't from a store I normally shop at.

I hate that. Maybe you can buy a gift for the person who gave you the card.

Hmmm... maybe I'll look into that. Good idea! Of course I'll have to check the value of the card. It is possible that it has "lost" value after so long, even if it is not suppose to, legal loopholes are corporate games.

Yes, I still have some gift cards from last Christmas. We have a plan to use one gift card per weekend next year. We think it will be fun. One weekend we might go to dinner, one weekend to a movie, and the next to Walmart - lol! I earn gift cards all year long as well, so we have quite a few. They will get used though. I love getting gift cards.

My last semester student teaching at my university the parents decided to give us gifts. One of the parents gave all of us giftcards to Starbucks and I still have mine. That was a year ago and I haven't done anything about it yet. Thankfully Starbucks does not take money from your giftcards so I still have the whole $5 balance.

No, I pretty much have them spent before the new year. You might check them because some places let them expire, even though they aren't supposed to.

Nope. I used mine all up. I have a few to give this year though.

Nope! Haha, my family gives me straight cash so I can spend it anywhere, which I like. Except one year my godfather's new wife got me a gift card to a store out in California. I live in Iowa. So I actually still have it, somewhere. It was only for 10 dollars anyway, but seriously, I can't shop in California when I live in Iowa. Haha, since they got divorced my godfather went back to giving me cash.
