How to put money from Visa gift cards onto my Visa credit card?

gift for her $50 image

anonymous

I have two Visa gift cards ($50, $25) and I'd like to put the funds from these two cards onto my Visa gift card somehow. I need an answer by tonight, please. Thank you.

Answer
You don't

Gift cards have NO CASH VALUE, thus, you cannot use them to pay your Visa bill

You have to use them for merchandise only. You cannot get a cash refund if you buy something with them and then return the items. You will just get another gift card.

ManUp

It must be the best because he has a very good sense of taste.

Any help in donating gift cards for needy for Christmas?

gift for women trying to get pregnant image

Sara Tyson

Is anyone willing to donate gift cards or does anyone know of a place where I can write a request to get them? Trying to help a couple women for Christmas who are pregnant. Ive tried everything locally, am now trying online. Please dont respond with rude comments, I have done my research and found that asking on here does work and people have done it before. Just trying to catch the eye of someone who is very financially sound that can help. Thanks!

Answer
I personally can't help, but did you try asking for donations at local business? They will normally help as long as they know it isn't a scam. You could also try asking friends and family for donations.

What should I get my pregnant wife for her birthday?

KOTS

I'm having a hard time figuring out what to get my wife this year for her birthday. She doesn't want any clothes, shoes, or things that won't fit or are uncomfortable right now since she is pregnant. I usually get her something that she wants really bad but won't buy for herself and then try to do something unique or special but she doesn't really want anything right now. Anyone have any ideas? I don't want to get something related to the baby because I will do that after the baby is born and I want the gift to be about her.

Answer
Get her some birth control! haha! . . .sorry you probably didn't find that very funny. . .

Get her some jewelery like a necklace or something like that. If she likes being pampered, offer her a day at the spa (with or without you). If she is sore or achy like some pregnant women, she'll appreciate a massage or or maybe a pedicure!

What do you buy a woman that is not girly at all?

gifts for girly women image

Elijah's M

I cannot buy her jewelry cuz she doesn't wear it, I can't buy her any accessories for that matter (scarves, gloves, etc.) What is a gift that anyone would like dispite gender?

Answer
What are her interests? Every woman is different. Buy her something she's interested in. I'm not particularly girly, and I like books about history, politics, religion, and sociology. No way of knowing if she would too.

What do you women find extremely attractive in your ideal MAN!!?

gift ideas for quirky women image

Mr. E

What is it about men that makes your ovaries explode with lust?

You can name more then one.

Physically?
Personality-wise?
Mentally?
Maybe some talents?
Quirky mannerisms?

Please be specific...

Answer
Lately for the past couple of years, I've had all the time in the world to think about what I really want in a man. I've met different types of guys who have opened up various aspects of the world to me.. I've met a guy who I thought was the absolute ideal person until I thought deeper about it. Just thought it might be interesting to perhaps list a few characteristics I would want my ideal man to possess. I'm sure a lot of other women would feel the same way inside.

Down to the very basics, the ideal man must be honest: he must not lie, cheat or deceive. He must be wise and be able to teach me more about the world and myself. I want a man to make me become a better person, to encourage me and to support me while i'm weak. I want him to be strong and also be able to show his weak side at times. I want him to be able to engage endless conversations. I want him to show respect, to take in consideration my opinions and ideas. I want him to be loving and caring and to never grow tired. I would want him to put up with me and accept me for the way I am. Superficially, I want a man who would go out of his way at any time to my need. I would want him to come from a nice family with nice friends. I would want him to have a future and direction. I would like a guy who remembers special dates and is full of surprises. Small gifts from time to time, little unexpected notes here and there, lots of reassuring love.

Most of all, I would love a guy who would change for me. The most important thing I find in a guy would be his personality and his loyalty.

Obviously I will not find a man who would fulfill every single criteria i have just mentioned.. so compromise takes its place from then on..

I am sick of love games. I really am, and I'm sure many of you are as well.. Sweet talk and extreme random acts of kindness are just meaningless to me now.. I feel manipulated when guys do that..
I really want to find the man I will marry and just settle down into life.. I want to get to know him well - both the bad and the good.. My previous post concerned consequences dealing with the future, perhaps I was wrong.. perhaps I was just too scared of becoming heartbroken all over again.

Silly stocking stuffer-type present?

annabanana

I want to get a little stocking stuffer for each of my coworkers. I can buy or make them. The point is to have them be kind of silly and quirky. Like last year, someone gave out penguins that poop jelly beans.
If it helps, we are all science teachers, so it could be something related to that. But it has to work for men and women and is supposed to be cute and funny for each of them.
Any ideas?

If I pay back an IRA withdrawal used for an investment property within 60 days will I be taxed on it?

gifts for her 60 image

MissKitty

We are buying an investment property and part of the down payment is coming from my mother. She doesn't want to be on the deed, just wants to help with the down payment. However, you're not allowed to use gifted money toward a down payment on an investment property. So to get around this I'm thinking of taking money out of my traditional IRA, using it toward the down payment, and then paying the money back (using my Mom's gift) within 60 days to avoid being taxed on the withdrawal. Is this okay or will I get in trouble with the IRS?

Answer
If you pay the entire distribution back within 60 days of the date of distribution, you will not owe tax on the amount taken out of your IRA. You must pay back the amount you receive, plus the amount that was withheld for taxes. A mandatory 20% is withheld for taxes. If you do not pay the amount withheld, that amount will be subject to tax plus a penalty even though you did not receive it.

When you file your taxes, the tax withheld is a payment that you may receive back depending on your other income.

Are 1/8 ctw diamond earrings a good present? What would you think if you received them?

PlasticTre

I bought a pair for 3 women in my family on sale for $37 each (retail $125), and I'm also giving them each a large scented candle. I just feel that maybe the diamond earrings weren't such a good idea, I just really wanted to buy them diamonds that I could afford. 1/4 ctw earrings were $90 so that wasn't affordable.

Answer
That's a really nice gift. I would be happy. I'm not getting jack sh*it for x-mess even thou I bought everyone gifts :/

Give him an Itunes gift card. We indies are crazy about indie & obscure music after all.

Anything vintage you think he'd like (posters, art, jewelry, hat, sunglasses, etc.)

How to send and recieve gifts in the Hunger Games Adventures?

Jacqueline

I can't figure out how to send gifts to my friends in the Hunger Games Adventure on Facebook. Could anyone please help me? Also, how do you open gifts that have been sent to you? Any help would truly be apprieciated!

Answer
I'm pretty sure there's no way to "send gifts" or "receive gifts" yet. There's a lot of development needed for the game still. As of right now there's still no inventory. I am guessing that gifting will come with the eventual addition of an inventory. Now if you're on a quest (assuming you haven't run out of quests already) and you need stuff you can click that "Ask Friends" button and if it is clicked it will automatically add that item to your count (though you'd never know it since it doesn't show who clicked it). I suggest with the "Ask Friends" thing that you share the post and then comment on the post and tag any friends that are currently playing so they will see your posts requesting items. Sorry that's all I have... Hope things work out for you!

We are having a surprise 50th for my parents, should we ask for donations to their charity?

gifts for her gadget image

Peaceful f

My parents have been extremely active in the American Cancer Society. Every one is aware of this. They truly don't need any more gifts or gadgets. How can we ask for donations for the charity of their choice, or should we just ask for a donation in their name to a charity of the individuals choice?

Answer
You could put "In Lieu of gifts, please make a contribution to the ACS" since people will want to bring a gift of some sort, and this would address the issue up front.

How can I offer gift cards for major brands on my website?

gift for her promotion image

Robsthings

When you go to Walgreens etc, there are a variety of gift cards available to applebees, the gap, etc. I've looked at a lot of pre-paid visa affiliate programs, but I would like to find an affiliate program that offers other gift cards, that I can offer to my customers. Any suggestions?

Answer
Hi,

I have a lot of experience marketing small companies online (I have 3 companies). One of the best ways is to sign up at business directories and protals. These are basically listings of businesses (simliar to the phone book). The advantage is that these portals usually get a lot of traffic and they're ranked high on Google because of all the quality links they contain.

My favorite portal is called Directory Exclusive. I signed up a few weeks ago because they're giving a away a free business card holder when a person enter's their company info. I received it in the mail 3 days ago =)

I don't know if they still have that promotion, but you can try to get the free card holder here:

JDog is th

I just won a $5 Walmart gift card (yes I know very exciting) from the Monopoly peel to win at McD's. The confirmation said 8-10 WEEKS to ship! Is that just worst case scenario or will it really take that long?

Answer
my experince with contests yes thats about right. Usually a sponsor waits till the promotion to end before they ship everything. I won a few in other contests and it took longer than the 10 weeks but had another that came about 6 weeks so it can depend. So pretty much it will be a supprise in the mail box :)

I have 4 neices/nephews from 3 to 10. Where's a good place to get ideas for gifts for Christmas? And is it better to buy online or fight the lines of Black Friday?

There are many lists put out by different toy stores, kids magazines,etc.

There is the Toys R Us Fabulous 15:
http://www.santaschristmascorner.com/toys-r-us-fabulous-15-toys-r-us-2012-holiday-hot-toy-list/

Also, K-Mart has it's own Fab 15 list:
http://www.santaschristmascorner.com/k-mart-top-15-christmas-toys-for-2012-part-1/

There are others, but I don't know the URLs off the top of my head.

As far as online vs black friday, I personally shop online. One, I don't like to get up early. Two, I don't like being trampled by people trying to get the 3 TVs for the special price. And Three, you will usually find bargains just as good or nearly as good online if you keep your eyes open.

What happened to all the gift card choices with american express?

gift for her $20 image

drinkbeerz

I have soe points built up over the years and there used to be a lot of companies with gift cards exchanging for .01/point value. Now all the gift cards which used to be the best bang for your points only offer .005/point.

10,000 points used to get you $100 gift card
20,000 points used to get you $200 gift card etc.

But now 20,000 points still only gets you a $100 gift card and only a few companies participating. I'm glad I also have been using my Chase Visa cash back card. Nothing like accumulating cash with no gimicks or exchange tricks.

Anyone else with AmEx notice any smart ways to use the points? Thanks

Can a business charge sales tax on its gift certificates?

martyz

This is the first time this has ever happened to me: I tried buying a gift certificate for $20 at a Virginia business -- they said they had to charge tax and make the gift certificate $20.50 --- I know it's only 50 cents, but if they do that to all customers, that's a bit of a scam, right?

Answer
I think it is a bit of a scam because they already tax the stuff that will be bought WITH the gift card.....but to say whether it is legal or just how taxes are....I don't know. Try looking into local laws and asking around different businesses that offer gift cards....ask WHY they charge taxes on them and you should get an answer from at least a couple places...and they should in theory be repeat answers.

Wooden puzzles (Melissa and Doug puzzles are great), an easel, play kitchen, books, dolls, mega blocks, tricycle, wagon, Leap Frog and V-Tech toys. Really anything that will help foster their imagination or help them learn.

Stay away from toys with small magnets or pieces that could become choking hazards.

Answer
No gifts are never income to the receipient. Enjoy!

do you set a limit when giving gifts to your husband/wife?

Daisy

if you do,how do you decide the amount when husband and wife earn different amounts?

like,if husband earns $150,000 and wife earns $50,000 per year how do you set the amount when buying gifts for the wedding anniversary?

is it he buys her gifts worth $100 and she buys him gifts worth $100

or

is it he buys her gifts worth $300 and she buys him gifts worth $100 etc?

Answer
My husband and I combine our income rather than worrying about who earned what. We do set limits on gifts, but we discuss it before each holiday/birthday based on our current financial position. (We are in grad school, and usually don't have much money to spend. This past year, my husband got a larger stipend, so we were able to revisit how much we spend on gifts.) When we set a price limit, we have the same limits to follow; it isn't weighted based on our incomes.

That being said, you should figure out what works best for you two. This is a conversation to have with your spouse, not with people on the internet.

How do I file the sale of an inherited home on my 2012 tax returns?

gift for her 2012 image

candigirl

I am confused as to whether it is income, a gift, etc. I don't know if I paid federal taxes on the sale of the home. I really do need to use the proceeds as income on my returns. How exactly would I do this? Or can I? We took I loss on the appraised value but we did receive proceeds... Please Help!!!

Answer
When was it appraised? If you're talking about the tax assessment, lthat's irrelevant.

Your taxable gain is only and appreciation between the time you inherited it and when you sold it, so if you sold it soon after inheriting it, there's likely no gain by the time you figure in a realtor's commission.

You still report the sale, though.

If you had it for awhile and either lived in it or rented it out, rules are different.

Can anyone tell me how to add a Target gift card to my wedding registry?

Crystal Ro

I can't add a gift card to my registry like I can add other items. What do I do to add these?
I did that but the option to buy isn't showing up when people go to the registry.
It's very common place and even courteous to add gift cards to a registry. It's not like I'm asking for cash.

What's tacky is to be completely and utterly unhelpful just for the sake of being snide.

Answer
Log in to your Target account, go to your registry settings, and under "About our registry," you can click the box that says "TargetGiftCards," which then allows people to buy them directly off your registry in any amount.

Edit- AHHH I hate people on this site!! You're right, it's MUCH tackier to answer questions just be to rude. I have yet to look at one registry and not see gift cards, it's 2012- it's not considered tacky anymore. What is it with people here who feel their opinion is better than everyone else's and NEEDS to be stated?

Anyway, for your problem, I would try going into Target soon and looking up your registry there. If the gift card option is not available, let the person behind the service desk know and they should be able to correct it.
