Congratulations. I can't keep a gift or rebate card a week. Don't you know that they sometimes burn holes in pockets and purses?

I believe several years ago that rebate and gift cards had an expiration date or starting charging a fee. That was quickly made illegal for companies to do and that is why they reissued the card. The other day I put on a acket and found 5 dollars and I felt as lucky as you.

You were lucky they were able to replace it. Sometimes things do go our way.

You can still go back to them, they keep those records and can tell you never used your card. Try it, you have nothing to lose. What is the deal anyway on getting these gift cards when you buy something. Why not just sell it for the lower price? I just bought an Xbox with kinnect and got $100. Gift card,took that and bought and IPod touch and got a $50. Gift card. And on it goes!
