gift-cards-group.gifWhat if your friends buy you a gift card for a restaurant that you hardly ever go to because its way on the other side of town. Of course, you wouldn’t mind trying it, but its such a “make a day of it” and you can’t think of what you want to do over there.  In the meantime, you go out to other places a bazillion times.  I am guilty of being that type of gifter because I tend to choose places that are just near me, and I forget that they don’t have a franchise near my friends.  Then, if I pick a national franchise, OF COURSE, they will be in their state, but maybe six hours away.

Over at FriendGiftr, you need not worry about that any longer. You can buy one gift card, and before its in their hot little hands, the friend can swap it out for another. It’s nothing personal! You can even give it to them over Facebook or other social media. They’ll receive a informing them of your gift. There are restaurants as various as Cadillac Bar, Darden Restaurants (Red Lobster, Bahama Breeze) and even Domino’s and Papa Johns if they don’t want their rear end to leave the sofa. The cards can be split so if they only use $12.00 on pizza, they can convert the rest of the card into something else. If they prefer to dine at the snack kiosk at Blockbuster or swipe beef jerky from the check out area of Bass Pro, they can knock themselves out with that, too.

Why not just give cash? Well, some people think cash is tacky unless you are giving it to your nephew who is in high school, or for a graduation. My take is that I never go out and treat myself to dinner…the cash will just end up going in the gas tank, and sometimes that’s not the giver’s intent. They want me to have dinner “on them.”
