I give gift cards - especially Visa ones - to people I don’t like.

No. If you can’t spend the time to think about something nice for someone once a year, just give them cash or nothing. Gift cards have fees, get lost, are sometimes for niche places, and always end up with money unused.

If its actually enough to buy something and I like the store, yes. Only $25 to anything above the Starbucks level is almost more trouble than its worth.

Gift cards absolutely suck.

I don't like gift cards because I read an article a few years ago that they are usually in a drawer with $3.20 still left on it and it gave me this picture of all the gift cards just not being fully used.
I only give cash to my young adult nieces and nephews, no gift cards.

No. I'd rather nothing than a gift card. I have so many random ones already.

I don't get random gift cards, usually just Visa gift cards, and I like them better than receiving some random gift I'll never use.
Sigh, I really wish my SIL would just give us a gift card for Christmas. Last year I gave away her gifts on Buy Nothing.

No. I don't even like ones for places I do shop.
If we're going to do gifts, buy something that makes you think of me. If we are just swapping gift cards, what is even the point?

Curious to see how people feel about them (not talking about gifts to teachers). I find I end up with a random assortment of cards for stores I rarely shop at.
