Still haven't decided what to spend my visa gift card on

I still have not figured out what to spend my visa gift card on. It expires in July of this year. I don't just wanna get anything or spend it on something useless. There's $197 on it.
I thought of getting Broadway show tickets with it when I wanted to see the Tootsie musical but Ticketmaster only accepts their own gift cards so that didn't work out.
Then I thought of getting myself a dark blue or multi-colored handbag - either Coach or Kate Spade. I did not find anything I like that was close to the amount I have on the gift card. I don't mind adding a bit of my own money but I don't wanna spend a lot of it.
Shoes would be great as I actually need some. However, I have not been able to find anything that looks great but is also comfy.
And I wouldn't mind a boombox so I can listen to all of my CDs. But I want one in silver not black and have not been able to find one that is from a brand I know and trust.
Time is running out. I don't want the gift card to expire! I have to think of something fast.
Maybe I should go to Zara and look at some jeans. I do need a jeans upgrade.

That's quite a lot - but yah, it'd be hard to figure out what all to spend it on by a deadline (if only we had money to burn like this all the time!) I guess if it were me, I'd try to get a head start on all the holiday shopping. Or maybe use it to treat some friends to coffee or lunch (that would add up real quick!). Hope you find something great to spend it on!

I originally wanted to use the gift card to pay for Mother's Day gifts I got my mom and mother-in-law. But then I decided to charge it in case I needed to return the stuff. However, after making the purchase I found out there are no returns/refunds at that store. Exchange only. So I could have used that gift card after all.

I wouldn't call it a problem. More like a dilemma.

I am having doubts about that.

Don't forget, you can also purchase gift cards with your Visa. Most of them don't have an expiration date; and even if they do, it will give you more time to decide. You can also buy gift cards to your favorite restaurants.

I don't want a gift card to a specific store. I like the option of being able to use it anywhere I want or need.
