[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m one of the teachers who does not want anything and I’ll tell you why.  I won’t use the gift cards and then it will be expected for me to write a thank you card back.  You are giving me more to do for something I am not even going to use.  Please stop with the gifts.

The teacher by me received a very nice GC to a restaurant and after school got out went class to class on our hall to see if anyone would use it. Hopefully she found someone. I said no and it reminds me to bring in my local ones from last year I never used, still in a drawer in my house.  [/quote]
You won't use Target or Amazon gift cards?  I consider those equivalent to cash.[/quote]

I’ll use Amazon. I never go to Target. I rarely shop inside stores anymore.  I have a few Target GC from past years that I haven’t used. It’s not my go to store for anything. [/quote]Target delivers just like Amazon.  Order laundry detergent or shampoo or something and be done with it.  [/quote]

I will eventually.  I throw them in a draw and last want to go through the 10 and 20 GC to do that.

I might have given the Target ones away to my own kids.  I don’t even remember.  So many of us give these away to each other or our kids.  [/quote]
I sometimes give gift cards to the school social worker if they’re something she can use. [/quote]

You can also donate them to homeless and women's’ shelters as well as diaper banks who are always desperate for gift cards. You could use them to shop online at the DC Area Diaper Bank wish page. [/quote]
