It is humbling and nice to get gifts. It shows that someone or people out there care for you, and they took out their time and resources to get you something special, for whatever reason. Although this might not be the only reason people end up with unused and unwanted gift cards, it is the most common. You might have bought a couple and realized you can't use them all, or you just made a wrong buy. It's not the end of the world, we have all made some slightly wrong financial decisions here and there before.
The hindrance with the gift card is the fact that it can only be redeemed at their designated brands. What this means is that you can only use Amazon gift cards to pay for items at Amazon alone and not at Walmart, and Google Play Gift Card can only be used on the Google Play Store, not at ShopRite. However, this does not necessarily mean you are at a dead end. Certain remedies can be done to make your unused gift cards useful to you again.
