Posted by admin on 25 Mar 2008 | Tagged as: Shops

Kmart (often spelled as “K-Mart“) is a chain of department stores in the United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam. The chain merged with Sears in 2005, creating the Sears Holdings Corporation. Kmart also exists in Australia and New Zealand, although it now shares no current relation with the American stores except in name after US equity in the Australian business was purchased in the late 1970s. It is the third biggest discount store chain in the world, behind Wal-Mart and Target.

How To Find The Best Gift Cards

Posted by admin on 21 Mar 2008 | Tagged as: Articles

The last two months of the year mark the time when nearly one quarter of all retail sales occur. This will happen soon, so it will be a useful reading for you.
Most shoppers plan to buy gifts not only for family and friends, but also for co-workers, teachers and baby sitters. With so many people to buy for, it’s important to know what they really want. That’s likely to be:

  • Apparel (54 percent)
  • Gift Cards (52.3 percent)
  • Consumer electronics (38.4 percent)
  • Jewelry (26.4 percent)
  • Home decor (23.3 percent)

Gift cards rank high on the list of preferred gifts to receive. They are also among the most popular gifts to buy. According to the Deloitte Annual Holiday Survey, a majority of shoppers (67 percent) plan to purchase an average of 4.9 gift cards this holiday shopping season. More than $20 billion will be spent on gift cards.

Shoppers like giving gift cards because:

  • They can visit fewer stores.
  • They can purchase less actual merchandise.
  • They can shop online.
  • They can finish shopping earlier and with less stress.
  • They can avoid the dreaded post-holiday season exchange of unwanted gifts.

Shoppers want gift cards that let the recipient get what they want where they want to get it, that don’t expire and that are refundable if lost.

For many gift givers, buying and giving a gift card is a no-brainer, but before you purchase a gift card for someone this holiday season – or if you receive one - there are things you should know:

  • Expiration Dates. Some gift cards can expire after 12 to 24 months if not used, which means the gift card is worthless if not used by that date.
  • Purchase or Issuance Fee. Needless to say, gifts cards with issuance fees should be avoided.
  • Maintenance or Inactivity Fees. Some gift cards also charge a maintenance fee. Some gift cards even charge these monthly fees retroactively back to the date of purchase, which can quickly eat up all or most of the gift card’s value if recipients do not redeem the card soon after they receive it.
  • Replacement Fee. Many gift cards will now allow you to register the card on their Web sites, allowing you to check the remaining balance and to request a new card to replace one that is lost or stolen. Other gift cards provide toll-free phone numbers to call to report a missing or stolen card.
  • Usage Limitations. Some gift cards can be used at any store location; others can be used only at stores that are affiliated with the merchant from whom the card was purchased.
  • Bank Gift Cards Still Have High Fees. Bank-issued gift cards, unlike gift cards issued by retailers, can be redeemed at any store that accepts credit or debit cards. But the advantages of bank-issued gift cards end there. Consumer Reports states that, unlike gift cards issued by retailers which have become more consumer friendly, bank-issued gift cards typically charge hefty fees and remain a bad deal overall.
  • The bottom line. Check gift card fees before you buy. Those fees usually are posted on the gift card sleeve or on the Web site. Buy gift cards with no issuance fees, expiration dates or maintenance fees, which can easily be found with gift cards issued directly by retailers. And if you receive a gift card, use it promptly - not only to avoid possible maintenance fees and expiration, but also to take advantage of post-holiday discounts.

Online Resale Of Gift Cards Raises Fraud Alarms

Posted by admin on 21 Mar 2008 | Tagged as: Articles

Quote:

How it works: Thieves use a stolen credit card number to buy a gift card online, then sell it to the highest bidder at an online auction website or for a set discount at a gift-card exchange website.

The ruse helps crooks make use of pilfered credit card numbers before the victim has a chance to deactivate the account. It “extends the life of credit card fraud,” says Paul Cogswell, vice president of loss prevention and risk services at Comdata, one of the nation’s largest gift card producers and processors.

Precise measures of the scam are tough to pin down. But gift cards have become a multibillion-dollar enterprise. Banks and retailers will issue a record $97 billion of them this year, up from about $82 billion last year, says market researcher TowerGroup. Major retailers popularized gift cards in the late 1990s, and Visa USA, MasterCard and American Express followed suit.

Since late 2002, merchant- and bank-issued gift cards have been increasingly turning up for resale at eBay, Craigslist and card-exchange sites such as cardavenue.com, plasticjungle.com and swapagift.com.

What should i say? I’m not selling gift cards, i’m not asking even a bucks for them. Understanding and researching a gift card market, i can just give you a way where you can go and get them for free, so the situation described above, can never happen here. Enjoy your gift cards!

Some Tips For How to Offload Unwanted Gift Cards

Posted by admin on 21 Mar 2008 | Tagged as: Articles

More and more people are giving gift cards in lieu of presents these days and while many of us appreciate the sentiment behind them we don’t always appreciate the giver’s taste in stores.

If somebody insists on giving you a $500 gift certificate for some store every year on your birthday even though you haven’t set foot in the place since you were 10, don’t just throw the card in a junk drawer along with all the others. You may be able to recoup the value.

There are now a number of Web sites that allow you to auction off unwanted gift cards or trade them in for cards from stores you regularly shop at:

Cardavenue. Registration for this site is free and takes less than five minutes. Once you’re signed in, browse available gift cards being offered for trade, or post your own for sale or swap. If you’re after a card from a particular retailer or restaurant, create a “wish list.” You can even combine two or more cards and trade them in for one card of equivalent value. So, for example, if you have a Starbucks’ card worth $50 and a Banana Republic card worth $100, you can swap them for one worth $150 at Bloomingdale’s.
Swapagift.com. This service allows you to trade or sell gift cards. Those looking to cash in their cards quickly should check out the site’s “preferred merchant list.” If your gift card comes from one of the retailers on the list, Swapagift will buy it from you for 60% to 70% of its original value. The only caveat: it has to be worth no less than $25 and no more than $500.

EBay. The online auction house doesn’t allow users to trade cards, but it is the largest market for selling them off, according to Bankrate.com, a Web site offering consumers free cost-saving advice. To start your search, just go to the home page and select “gift certificate” from the category menu.
