If you had to grin and bear it over the holidays when you got a gift card to a place that you know you don't have any interest in, you just might have a happy out.
If you find an old gift card in your wallet, don't throw it out just yet. According to Louisiana law, some expired gift cards and certificates might not actually be expired.
The gift card is become more widely accepted as the go to gift for the last minute shopper. It even is breaking down the stigma of thoughtlessness that it once had.
