Gift Cards – Don’t Buy

Nowadays, there’s an alternative way to doing just about everything. Want to read a book? You could either buy a physical copy or an eBook. Want to study a course? Well, in more recent years, online classes have become a trend, allowing you to learn within the comforts of your home. Today, though, we’ll be focusing on something else.

Many of us love to shop. Of course, shop owners know that, too. As a result, they often offer us a gift card or two. In a way, gift cards are like money, but they’re only valuable for select companies and brands. Even so, that hasn’t stopped people from purchasing a couple of them from well-known names, like Starbucks and Amazon. As convenient as it seems in the long run, though, some stores sell these cards for a reasonably costly price, so for those stores, it’s best to do your shopping the old-fashioned way – a digital wallet works, too.
