Now, I was gone for my birthday, so my family has kind of been giving me my gifts as these pass by. today, one of my aunts gave me my gifts.

Now, two christmas' ago, she gave me a $25 visa gift card. Troublesome to use, but I found a game on amazon for exactly $25, so I got rid of it quickly.

Today, I open the card she gave me, it feels unusually thick. Not one, not two, but -three- visa gift cards are inside, all valueing $15. Along with the receipt, in which case I see that it cost her a $4.95 activation fee.

Why? Why waste money like that. Why not just give me $50. Give me a gamestop gift card, or an amazon gift card or something like that(Seriously, I dont exactly shop from a wide variety of places). But three $15 cards? Do you know how hard it is to spend these? I dread seeing a cashiers face when I come in and say, "I want to pay with three $15 visa gift cards and then some cash on top of that".

Visa gift cards are seriously the worst things ever created.
