I thought I would use them for gifts, but never did so. Maybe I need to make a more conscious effort about it or even buy gifts for folks even though there isn&#039;t any special occasion looming. 

I never thought about regifting the cards, but maybe I could add money to some of them. Rounding up to a more even number before handing them over. There are a few that other family members would like. I could either say, &quot;hey, I&#039;m not using this do you want it&quot; or round up. I have given my dad a bunch for restaurants because he and my mom like to eat out. I don&#039;t give it to them as a gift, more like a just because it&#039;s burning a hole in my pocket. 

Thanks for commenting!]]></description>

I actually LOVE this idea. There are lots of items in the house that could use a little updating. There isn&#039;t necessarily anything wrong with what we have, but a nice set of &#039;new&#039; whatever using gift cards we already have sounds like a lovely idea. New underwear might make the top of that list. Ha! Ha!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I like to use my gift card stash for one of three things:
- to buy gifts for other people
- to *give* as gifts to other people, namely my nieces and nephews (I do this often with odd leftover bits from merchandise credits - I&#039;ll give them the merchandise credit and usually buy a gift card to make it an even amount)
- infrequent splurges for myself

I like to get gift cards out of my house as quickly as possible now to avoid the &quot;stress&quot; of having gift card clutter.  I&#039;ve sold some online in the past for about 90% of their value, but only when I knew I would never, ever shop at the store in question]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I would suggest taking a peek around your house for those items that you only buy new every 5+ years and see if they need replacing.  For me, it was bath towels, oven mitts and kitchen rugs. The ones that I have are still usable but getting to the point where I&#039;m a tad embarrassed for visitors to see them.  And sometimes a girl just needs to say &quot;Yes&quot; to herself, especially when she has to say &quot;No&quot; so often to her toddler. :)]]></description>
