Default Re: Gift Vouchers: For needs vs for wants

I have the same decision to make. I have a GF from Target and a larger one from Bed Bath and Beyond.

Im using the Target one for necessities like household items and the Bed Bath and Beyond one for a shoe rack for my closet. BBB is a rip off, imo, so Im going to stretch the card as far as I can with store-coupons.

I think your answer depends on how in debt you are and how often you splurge on yourself. I was bad last month at Target so thats why my GC isnt getting used on anything "fun" there.

$100 at Amazon is a lot. Too much, imo. Id sell it on ebay and spend half on fun stuff like a CD or DVD...then save the rest.
