How to Give Better Gift Cards

How to Give Better Gift Cards

Yes, you waited until the last minute—but these tips will guarantee the gift card rocks, anyway

Gift cards usually say "I waited until the last minute." Make yours meaningful by considering the recipient's lifestyle and personality.

Music Money
Beef up your runner friend's half-marathon playlist with an iTunes gift card (itunes.com) or upgrade your Spotify-loving pal to a premium subscription–now available in a gift card (go to spotify.com for stores).

Personal Mary Poppins
Treat a frazzled friend to a vacation from cleaning. You give a card from a home-cleaning service like The Maids or Merry Maids; she calls up the nearest office and sets a date for a clean sweep (maids.com or merrymaids.com for office locations and gift-card info).

The Gift That Keeps on Giving
With a gift card to Global Giving (globalgiving.org) or Tisbest (tisbest.org), a do-gooder friend can peruse hundreds of charities and select the cause she most wants to support.

Fancy-Food Shopping
Foodies will go bananas for a gift card to a pricey supermarket like Dean & DeLuca (deandeluca.com) or Whole Foods (wholefoods.com).
