Gift Cards

We love them. We hate them. Well, we hate them when they are to stores that we either never frequent or that we do not have access to. I have received two gift cards that fall into that later category. One to Hastings and one to this store called Baskin's. They sell western wear. Yeah. Fantastic. Exactly what I need. Seriously. Why buy me a gift card to THAT store? It was out of my aunt's way. Why not buy me a Wal-Mart gift card. At least I could use that for buying a new card for my camera or a new DVD player. And Hastings? While I do love some movies, books and music, there are two problems with Hastings: there are none that I know of in Dallas and they are horrifically overpriced.

But all is not lost. I found a fabulous website called CardAvenue. You can list unwanted gift cards on the site and trade them for something more fitting. I am hoping I can score something to Best Buy, Fry's, Target or Wal-Mart. I will settle for a Borders card though.

Anyway, just thought I would share the word.
