Have you seen the commercial with Queen Latifah and her mom shopping at Walmart? They end up getting everyone a giftcard instead taking the time to pick out things they think people would like. That really bothers me. Not that I don't like giftcards. I think they're great (especially for Starbucks!), but giftcards should never completely replace actual gifts! Christmas is about finding that perfect something for the people you love and knowing they are going to love it, partly because you spent so much time searching for it.
There's my soapbox....and please don't take it to mean that I hate giftcards. I love them in moderation.
Jeers: a backache from studying
Cheers: the light at the end of the tunnel
ps - have you noticed how often I've been posting? yeah, I'm definitely getting tired of studying.

Go Elaine!! You can do it, you're almost finished! And I agree with your no substitution policy...giftcards are great, but presents are better :) Shows someone how much you care!
