gift card= I'm taking out the fact that i dont have any idea what to get you, on you. I put in enough effort to determine a store you probably wont want to shop at and have purchased a gift card from said store, for you.

Well, cash bears the stigma of "I didn't know what to get you", but a gift card is supposed to be better, because it's saying, "I didn't know what to get you, but I know you shop here or like things that are sold here." I'd rather have a really crappy gift or straight cash, though, than a gift card. A crappy gift means you at least took a shot. Straight cash is ultimately more useful.

indeed

So do gift-cards. You get the credit-card type. Can even buy stuff online with it. It's better than cash.

That said, a thoughtful gift with a reciept included or "I'm not sure if this is exactly what you wanted, but I kept the receipt incase it isn't." is also cool.

I disagree. It is not better than cash. Cash is more useful and only marginally less thoughtful. I can take the cash and put it in my acct and then use a check card to buy online.

It's a matter of perspective, though.

I totally agree with this, though.

I agree, but even though I am only 24, cash feels way more "real" to me than a piece of plastic. I guess since I grew up in a household where credit-card use was frowned on (right or wrong, many ways to view it) and I rarely saw them except for business transactions, cash makes me feel warm and fuzzy and CC's do not. Utility may be the same, but cash feels better I agree with you 100%.

The problem here is, I have a few friends that money is no object to. I have to actually THINK about what I am going to get them, as the gift is meaningless, they could buy anything they wanted except maybe a Veryron, and probably that if they wanted to blow the cash on it. This means it is 100% the thought and 0% the subject. Then I have some other friends who are scraping by in college. To them, the $100 gift-card/CC/Cash would be WAY! more meaningful and very well thought out.
