GIFT CARDS

If you are like most people in this world, then you probably buy 1 or 2 gift cards a year. They're ideal for that hard to buy for person, or maybe a last minute gift. They are quick and easy gifts. I can remember on year that was all my wife and I bought was gift cards. In fact chances are you may have one in your wallet or purse right now, yeah they get tucked away and forgotten about.

If you still buy gift cards to this day then you may want to think about something. Research shows that since 2005 there has been 41 billion dollars lost or never used when it comes to gift cards. Now think about this for a second, 41 billion dollars that has not been used or lost. That number is amazingly high. Thats 41 billion dollars worth of profit that was given to the big retail companies.

I know what you are thinking, it's just so easy to pick up a gift card, and you are right. But there is something else that is just as easy.

Thats right send them some Bitcoin or maybe some other crypto currency, I mean all you would have to do is have them set up a crypto wallet. More and more companies are starting to take Bitcoin, soon Amazon will start taking Bitcoin (I hope).

41 Billion dollars, remember that number next time you go in and give a retailer your money for a gift card. Remember this they get their money when you buy the gift card, so essentially they have sold their product and will keep it untill the gift card holder decides they want to come in and pick it up.

If Bitcoin isn't your thing you can always send them some real money (((silver or gold)))
