We've had a week to sort through our Christmas presents; we've tried on clothes to make sure they fit, and now that the snow is gone we can finally gt out to return items that don't fit, or (heaven forbid) we don't want. I wish you much waiting in the line for returns. If you received gift cards for Christmas, you don't have to worry about returning anything, because hopefully you bought what you wanted. That's the best part about getting a gift card - buying exactly what you want.
Now that gift crads are one of the most popular Christmas gifts, chances are you got 2 or 3. This brings us to a new holiday problem: getting a gift card to a store that we don't patronize. Someone that can't stand to read might have gotten a Barnes and Noble gift card, or someone who's never hammered a nail in their life might end up with a Home Depot gift card. If you find yourself with a gift card you'll never use, never fear - there's a place you can go for help. Just go to www.cardavenue.com . You can sell or trade your unwanted gift card, and at the same time you can buy a gift card for a store you like, at less than the face value. You probably won't get full face value of the card you sell, but hey - anything is better than nothing, right?
A side note for gift card owners: be sure to check the cards for expiration dates. A lot of cards also depreciate in value if they go unused.
A side note for my faithful readers: your beloved author's birthday is just 25 short days away, and I love Home Depot and Barnes and Noble.
