Do you waste gift cards?
A recent survey says 28% of us have unused gift cards sitting at home. Starbucks, in particular, isn’t complaining about that. They've sold 3 billion dollars in gift cards during prior Christmases, and 165 million of them were never used. Sure, we lose them, tuck them away in a drawer, let them expire… whatever reason, it’s a lot of wasted coffee and the cash is going right to their bottom line. So at least re-gift it! Don’t let those cards collect dust.
