Never Pay Full Price for a Gift Card
00:00:00.000 | I professionally handle gift cards, I touch gift cards all the time.
00:00:03.560 | I never give gift cards as gifts.
00:00:05.840 | The best way to use a gift card, the way I use them is as a way to save money.
00:00:09.000 | It's a way to get an additional discount on stuff you're going to buy anyway.
00:00:12.080 | So I guess that operates on the assumption that gift cards
00:00:15.120 | should cost less than the actual value of the gift card.
00:00:18.120 | Yes. You should never pay a full price for a gift card,
00:00:20.760 | which I think is what most people's experience is.
00:00:23.160 | They go into a Walgreens because they need to get a gift for a party
00:00:27.280 | that they forgot that they were supposed to bring a gift to.
00:00:29.640 | and then they pay full price for a gift card off the rack to give to someone else.
