Will a mall or a department store let me return a gift card for cash?

gift card
Me1984 asked:

My dad doesn’t believe in giving money for Christmas, and will not change his mind, but he has purchased gift cards for me in the past. Sometimes I would rather have the money than the gift card even though I do appreciate his gifts. I have a couple bills I need to pay and would like some spending money instead. If I get a hold of the receipt can I exchange the gift card for money and explain to the store that I want to return the gift card because it wasn’t what my family member expected their Christmas present to be?

    why don’t you ask him for a Visa gift card. it works anywhere, and you can pay your bills with it also. :] i♥u.

    The same thing happened to me last year but they wouldn’t just give me cash. There’s really nothing they can do about a gift card they said because it will run out eventually anyway so they wont do returns on it because its like getting free money. That’s what the worker at the store i went to said at least, but i guess it really depends on what store. King Leonitus
