Giving Gift Cards No Longer an Option?
How do you turn a block of gold into a lump of coal? By buying gift cards to a retailer that goes bankrupt in a few months.
I just finally tossed the Sharper Image gift card in my wallet after realizing there is no hope of ever getting even a penny out of that.
It’s easy to pick up gift cards instead of picking up a gift, but it’s a risk to receive gift cards these days, as retailer bankruptcies are on the rise.
If you are thinking of buying a gift card, buy one for the local mall that your friends and family shop at. I guess even for gift cards these days, you need diversification in your portfolio!
