[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids LOVE gift cards. To icecream shops, movies, Panera etc. They love being able to 'pay' for themselves. My son ordered shake at McDonalds with his lunch because he could (we rarelyl eat there and i never allow a shake). He was SOOO Excited. 
My DD got extra sprinkles and whip cream on her sundae with her gift card. THe kids love things like that and look forward to using them. Much more than another toy[/quote]

Agreed! I ask people for gift cards for my kids if they want to know what to get them. They sort of side eye me, lol. I think they believe it’s for me. My kids really go bonkers over them. [/quote]

What part is tacky?  If someone asks what to get my child and I give an answer, is that tacky?  [/quote]

Cash or gift card is not a gift.   You are greedy.[/quote]

I don't agree.  I think it would be greedy and tacky to just announce that my child only wants money or gift cards.  I do not think it is greedy or tacky to answer a question if asked.  I usually say that my kids do not need anything at all, so there is no need to buy them anything.  If the person pushes saying they really want to get them something, I will mention gift cards.
