"Good idea"

Gift Cards and pre paid cards are a scam for banks who charge a fee to the retailer for the use. The fee could be X for purchases under Y amount and a percentage of 2-3 per cent for purchases greater than Y.

You are just enriching Visa & MC for gift card purchases. They are also counting on these cards not being used or left with a balance that expires after Z amount of time.

We’re retired on a very limited income. Any extra money went to prepping. Sorry!
