Should I get a visa gift card? 10 points! Thank You :)?
Q. Hi there,
I'm planning on buying a visa gift card from copps or walmart. I need to purchase some things online and this sounds like a good idea. Has anyone tried it or is currently using it? Any fees? I called Visa and they said there's just one fee when you buy it between $3-$8. But I need to know more about it. Can anyone give me some info on that?
Thank you! I appreciate your answers. 10 points best answer :)

The Pros and Cons of Gift Cards
Thereâs always a lot of fuss this time a year about gift cards. Some people love them, and some people hate them. Iâm sort of in the middle.
On the one hand, I continue to believe that anything a big company wants you to purchase is probably not in your best interest. That is, if a mega-corporation is all fired up to sell gift cards, you can bet theyâre a profit center, which probably means theyâre rigged against consumers.
On the other hand, gift cards are convenient. Theyâre easy to give, and theyâre generally easy to use. There are many circumstances in which gift cards make great gifts.
I like to receive gift cards for certain stores. Over the past year, for example, Iâve accumulated $185 in Landâs End gift cards, and I wouldnât be surprised to receive more this Christmas. I havenât used any of them yet, though Iâve checked to be sure Iâm not going to get dinged because of it. Sometime this spring, after my birthday, Iâm going to have an on-line shopping spree â and it wonât cost me a dime.
Thatâs one problem with gift cards â here are some others:
They expire. Some gift cards carry an expiration date. The recipient must use the card within a certain amount of time, or the card becomes unusable.
They have fees. Some gift cards â especially those issued by banks â carry fees for various events. Some even charge to use the card. (In August, Tim shared how a gift card from Bank of America carried fees for checking the balance.)
They can be difficult to use. Did you buy a CompUSA gift card for somebody this Christmas? Oops. CompUSA is going out of business â suddenly thereâs a very real deadline to use that card. And what if you buy a gift card for somebody but the store doesnât do business where the recipient lives? Not all gift cards are convenient.
They carry an obligation. When you give a tie to your father, thereâs nothing else he has to do use the gift. But when you give a gift card, your father must go to the store to use it. This often means that he has to spend additional money to find something he likes. Gift cards can force the recipient to spend money on his own gift!
