5 minutes of caring

Used Plastic


Used Plastic

Keep empty gift cards. They'll come in handy.

If you've already burned through all your gift cards, congratulations! It only took a little more than a week to shop and spend all of those wallet-size tokens of loved ones' appreciation. But, if you still have one or two left, don't toss them out when they're empty. Keep your plastic gift cards to reload and give to someone else down the road. Most staples of our modern consumerist world can continue to put money on the same piece of plastic so there's no need to grab a new one when it's time to shop for your neighbor's birthday.

Another idea for the used gift cards is to repurpose them for your kids. My 4 year old daughter has several pocketbooks for dress up and she loves to carry my used gift cards for when she "goes shopping." It's sort of like the kids enjoying the empty box more than the toy that came inside it!
