Thank you for posting that. Although I am aware of the meaning of https with the "s" meaning secure & having a little lock icon I know that many are not. I was ordering a gift card for my inlaws in FL last week from one of their favorite restaurants & I did notice that when I was to put in my credit card info the page was not secure. I had some trouble trying to contact them so I ended up ordering a gift card from somewhere else that had a secure page. I was telling my friend about this & she said she never looks, so I was glad to be able to enlighten her!

It *is* an important difference!

I'm still amazed that there are people who order from us by e-mail ... and include their credit cards right in the e-mail. That really makes me cringe!

(Readers... please don't ever do that!!)
