Gift Cards This Christmas?

Well, I have $300 in various gift cards from Christmas. I really could only use the ones good for food and gas so I guess I'm just going to have to buy whatever I can with the rest of them. Have you been in this situation? I am every year, you cant take the card back, nor would you want to try to upset the person that got it for you. So what do you do? I've found the answer!

SELL THEM!! YES, SELL THEM!

There are many websites such as Card Avenue, Plastic Jungle and others that will buy your gift cards for you! Looking for gift cards? They sell them too at a discounted price! I have seen several friends of mine take advantage of these services and they have worked each and every time. I am definitely thinking about getting rid of a few of my gift cards in the next couple of days.

How is this possible? It's really simple. There will be a list of cards that they are taking, from gas, clothing to food, you simply find ones that you have and see what they are going for. Have a $100 Kohl's card? Sell it for $80! Need a $100 Kohl's card? Buy it for $92! It's that simple! Shipping is either cheap or free and thousands of people are starting to catch on to this new idea! You can always go the eBay route of course, but those are never a given. I once saw a friend of mine sell a $50 gas card for $12!! Don't let that happen to you! These websites will pay you by check, paypal, or a Visa debit card. It is quick, painless and it puts cash in your pocket, or will help you save a few bucks towards your next purchase! Did you get a Sears gift card when you really wanted a Macy's? You can even trade cards on these sites as well!

Gift cards are a $80 billion dollar a year business, you are sure to find what you are looking for on one of these sites!

I just thought I would share this info with you, I am glad I learned about these sites because I don't see the never ending gift card Christmas train stopping anytime soon when the holidays roll around! Don't be stuck with your unwanted gift cards either, give one of these services a try, or at least look into them, I think you will be as excited as I am!
