6 months later, all three cards have expired, so all three companies get $25 of free revenue, and no one really got anything for Christmas.
Gift cards are a fucking scam
Gift cards expiring isn’t legal in Canada. We just expect you to lose them, and there is still plenty of profit in that, apparently.
They don't expire here, 3ither, but I found a 10-year-old gift card after a move and the company had switched to a new gift card system, so I had to spend an hour calling around to get my ancient gift card converted to modern store credit. It was not worth it for $20.
