A gift would be great if the giver knew what to get, but gifts tend to be things I don't use anyway. So even if I don't use the entire amount of the gift card, it's better than something I don't use at all. If I give a gift card, I try to put some thought into the kind that person will like.
For example, my mother knows I like to read and often buys me a book for Christmas. Nine times out of ten, I already have it or have read it. A gift card to Chapters would be appreciated and I could get something new.
