When choosing gift cards...
Take full advantage of what you know about the receiver. Take a minute to think about everything you know about them: hobbies, recent goals, personal projects, etc. Let's say you know your cousin has been trying to eat healthy. Panera Bread gift card is probably more considerate than other fast-food gift cards. Check their recent social media posts, ask what they've been up to, or even ask those who know the receiver well if you don't know a lot about them.
Personalize the gift card. Instead of giving someone a dull-looking gift card, why not opt for the ones that allow you to choose from various themes. For example, Red Lobster offers e-gift cards with themes that range from the holiday season, congrats, thank you, to other occasions. E-gift cards generally are more flexible than plastic ones when it comes to themes and other customization. Plus, e-gift cards are sent to the receiver via the internet and go beyond the stay-at-home orders that many states have executed.
