I haven't bought gifts yet

So will you be braving the chaos of shops over the weekend, or is everyone getting digital giftcards?

If ya gotta do this, honestly, gift visas.

It's a gift card you can use for a new hat...or your groceries, or bills and things are fucking hard

I've gotten a few of those ultimate gift cards before, and sometimes they're okay, they do actually let you shop online unlike most, and you can even add it to your phone as a tap and pay, but it just seems kind of weird to me that with all the hassle they went to to enable buying stuff online and adding it to the mobile wallets, it's still only limited to a few different stores. It's just odd
