I know it’s bad luck to receive knives as a wedding gift. How about buying knives, using a gift card that we received as a wedding gift? Does anyone have an answer with a logical explanation?

I live at college and I think that someone has used my gift card because it is empty and I haven’t used it. Can you call and find out who it was by the shipping address it was sent to, or is that impossible?

k_townvegas asked:


I’m getting a gift card for a friend for christmas. I want to know how I should wrap this? I thought of either putting it in a tiny gift bag but should I put anything else inside? Also should I get the filler paper or put anything else in the bag?

Or my 2nd choice should I just put the gift card inside an envelope?

I want to wrap it like a gift. Advice? Btw I’m a guy so not too girly.

I am going to have a birthday party for my 2 year old son and I am going to do like a combo of that and a Jack and Jill baby shower. Being I already have my son and he is only 2 and I am going to be having another boy I already have the majority of the things I need. The only things I need are the every expensive things. I am thinking about asking for gift cards for the baby shower to use towards the expensive things I need. Is that rude or is there a correct way to word it so it wont sound rude?

Amanda asked:

I’m getting a starbucks gift card for a friend as part of a birthday gift, but I’m also getting one for his roommate as a belated birthday gift. They come in $15 or $25 cards. I feel like $25 might be too much, because they’ll know I spent at least $50 dollars on them. Is $15 enough?

I need to buy a present for my friend’s wedding and I don’t want to buy something from her registry because I am too late to do so. I would like to buy her and fiancee a gift card instead. How much should I buy the gift card for? My sister says $50 is too little, I don’t have a big budget though and I will not be attending my friends wedding either due to work related problems. Help!!!

She’s my coworker but we also have become friends, not best friends just a normal friends. Its her birthday tomorrow and I want to get her a gift card from Target (she loves that store, who doesn’t?) and not sure how much money to put in there. She has given me a couple of rides home when my car was in the shop, so I really want to acknowledge her birthday.

Drunken Pirate asked:

She’s turning 21 tomorrow and I’m thinking about getting her a gift card to Beverages & More. I know she’ll be wanting to pick up some booze, so why not treat her to her first few bottles? Would this be tacky? (I’ll be getting a few other small things as well.)
