5 Reasons to Give a Gift Card

1. It allows the lucky receiver to get something he or she likes.

Molly's nieces had not always appreciated the Christmas gifts she got them. Molly's taste in clothes was not exactly the same as theirs, whenever they got into the teen years. When Molly came to know her nieces always returned what she got them for Christmas to the stores, she decided not to pick out stuff she thought her nieces should like any more. Instead, she found out where her nieces liked to shop, and got gift cards to those stores! Guess what? Molly is back to being the favorite, cool aunt again! Her shopping became even easier when she discovered a gift card mall on line.

2. You won't go wrong with a gift card.

Molly's nieces love the gift cards she gets them. They get to go to their favorite stores and pick out clothes they like. It's hard to go wrong with gift cards. Even if you don't know the recipient's favorite stores, you can always give them a Visa Prepaid Debit card.

3. It requires no, or minimum wrapping.

Molly now gets her gift cards on line. She saves time shopping, and also wrapping. The gift cards sometimes come in envelopes with festive designs too!

4. You can design your own gift card.

The gift card mall also offers buyers the option of designing their own gift cards. One Christmas, Molly got her nieces gift cards with their baby pictures on them! Her nieces squealed with delight when Molly gave them the specially designed gift cards! Of course, the girls nearly smothered their cool aunt with kisses! The gift cards became keepsakes for the girls too!

5. Everybody loves it! It's almost like cash!

Who doesn't love a gift card? The pleasure of receiving a gift card continues after Christmas! Molly's nieces looked forward to days of shopping after Christmas, when stores were having huge sales! What fun!
