Prepaid gift cards are reusable and educational. After your 12 year old niece has spent your five dollars, using the gift card, on a bottle of cheap wine, she can put her own money on the card and keep on a-spendin'. This will teach her valuable skills involving the use of credit cards--how they have limits, how you can't spend more than you have. She will stay out of debt when she grows up and won't have to sleep on your couch. Isn't it time you put a little more thought into your birthday gifts? Don't be the neanderthal still sending obnoxious greeting cards that aren't funny--no one likes them and all they show about your love is that you have enough of it to stop in the card aisle at CVS on the way to get your anti-fungal cream. Thanks, Aunt Jerk. Prepaid gift cards however are the gift that keep on giving. Forever. Never give another gift again. Just put more money on that gift card and call it a day. You can ride this thing out forever. Prepaid cards are accepted everywhere regular cards are accepted. They work just like normal cards. No one has to know you're not mature enough for a real credit card. But if the cashier does notice, he won't think less of you--to him, you'll be someone who has so many friends that they give you gift cards. And that's very admirable for someone so physically revolting. He'll think you must have a great personality. Prepaid debit cards come in a variety of colors--from pink to clear--and benefit from worldwide acceptance. Most cards benefit from the same features of standard cards, depending on the company you choose. MasterCard, for example, protects you from fraud and stolen cards. Discover doesn't really care. But with prepaid Visa cards you get Zero Liability, flexibility, convenience, and lots of friends. So when that next birthday comes up, don't groan. Get somebody a couple prepaid credit cards and await the outpouring of gratitude. Sat, 26 Jul 2008 15:00:00 EDT
