Hi Lori:

I have never liked "gift cards" as it restricts what I can use my "gift" for. Especially now with the recession, they have closed their doors by the time I get around to using it. Some places will refund the amount or allow you to use it with another store that they have made arrangements with.

LOL, yes - us women have a way of forgetting about "treating" ourselves. I am teaching my now 25 year old (only child) to treat herself when she has something extra. I do the same when I can. I saw my mom give up her life for us kids and we did not appreciate this at all. It is possible to be there for others and for ourselves.

Good points
