    Default Happy Mother's Day to Me!!

    Family sent a gift card from MSQC instead of flowers this year for Mother's Day. Do you think they finally get it. Flower fabric is so much more fun than flowers I throw out in a week. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the flowers, but I REALLY appreciate the gift card. Now to go shopping. grammasharon

    What a thoughtful gift! My family considers gift cards too impersonal, but I hint that I can get what I want, and don't need any more jewelry, household things, clothes, etc. Happy Mom's Day to everyone!

    That is a great gift!! It took many gift occasions for me to convince the family I did not care for flowers or jewelry.

    How kind of your family. I recently got a gift card to Ace hardware. It will be put to good use.

    Some of my family thinks gift cards are not suitable gifts. But they have never given one back! For teens and young adults the only gifts I give them are pre paid Visa cards. They can pay a bill, buy gas, or eat out. What's not to love about a gift card?
