No matter who you shop for this year, gift cards are an awesome gift. Not only that, many people we talk to say a gift card is their preferred gift of choice, especially if they get to choose the store! Gift cards have fast become one of the most popular purchases on the internet, even more so during the holiday season. More and more merchants are embracing the trend, some will offer online gift card purchases for the very first time this year. So, what kind of gift cards are people expecting this year? That really depends on the person, as it does with any gift. You could just play it safe and give a VISA, Discover or American Express gift card. Just a few short years ago, I recall walking into my local Chase bank branch and asking to purchase a gift card for a Christmas present. They looked at me like I was crazy, and suggested I go to the local mall and pick up a Simon gift card. That was a nice suggestion, but that card is only valid at the mall, and my gift recipient wasn't a mall type of person. So, I remembered I had a savings account on Wachovia. I tried the same routine there. Nope, couldn't buy a credit card gift card at any bank. I remember thinking to myself how the banks were missing out on a big opportunity for branding and a mini profit center. But hey, what do I know, I'm not a big corporate bank! These days, you see gift cards everywhere - at your local grocer, drugstores, convenience stores - and of course, online! Now there are several variations of visa and amex gift cards available on the internet. If you are looking to give your college student, son, daughter, or anyone a "re-loadable" credit card gift card, you should instead look into a prepaid credit card. There are several advantages to choosing the reloadable credit card. The chief benefit being that it will help the gift recipient's credit report. Even if your "giftee" is a big fan of her local discount stores such as Target or Wal-Mart. No problem. You order the gift card online and it is delivered right to her via home delivery or even email. What could be easier- for both you and your giftee! My cousin is a big shopper and I get her a walmart gift card every year for her birthday. Often times a gift card really is the most appropriate choice. Perhaps you stop for a coffee break every day, a starbucks gift card is the perfect choice. Have a geek in your life? Want to give someone a computer and have no clue about the technical specs required to make the right purchase? Gift Card! Several computer companies offer giftcards for that very reason - Dell is one that comes to mind, as well as Apple Computer. They offer all sorts of gift options including an iTunes gift card for their popular iTunes music downloads. Other good gift card ideas:
Anyway you look at it, a gift card is a solid idea for most anyone on any occasion. So, if you are smothered with gratitude this season because you were so wise to choose the perfect gift, don't say we didn't warn you. Happy Holidays! |
