It’s card to know what to like

It’s a gift.

If you are assigned to mucking out the reindeer stable, it must mean you are on the naughty list.

Never understood gift cards, just give me the cash. Easy to use and can be used anywhere. Then when I hear the stats of how many of millions of dollars in gift cards that go unused I just think of what a waste.

Those elves all look pretty mean. Judgemental, too. We need to send some cute, little, nice ones up there. Let’s call Shirley Dimple’s agent.

With the number of gift cards that are given out each year, I would think he would be the most frazzled elf at the North Pole.

The ones he doesn’t like are putting together IKEA furniture.

…..better the gift card department than the shelf!

Lend a hand making more elfie selfie sticks.

Santa Klaus is naughty, not nice.

If Santa was nice, he and his crew would repair l infrastructure instead of distributing trashy token toys .

^^You shouldn’t expect any more infrastructure repairs for the next four years.

He’s the dominant one in the group, the elf-a male.

in my state they’re promoting lottery tickets as gifts. Can you imagine the scene? If it’s a loser, they got nothing. If it’s a winner, especially a big one, the giver is gonna want a slice of the pie, no doubt, and if the recipient refuses, well, who knows what’ll happen next… (especially if there’s been some heavy drinking!)

Physical GC’s, yet another obsolete concept just waiting for fraud to occur ! ;-)

Gift Cards can be sent easily and electronically. Cash…. not so much.
