What to Do With a $25 Gift Card

Post by algale »

I recently came into possession of a Shopsmith gift card worth $25 and I'm looking for suggestions on what to buy with it. Anything (or any combination of things) less than or equal to $25. What would you do? Go!

I would hang onto it for a little while until you need parts or whatever Shopsmith item you require. Then put it against the price of the order. Even if it doesn't cover the entire order, it cuts your cost by $25. You can't beat a deal like that.
It won't burn a hole in your pocket if you keep it until needed.

Provided there is no expiration date! Many promotional gift cards do expire.

Don't forget the freight on your order.

I have been expecting a gift card now for some time. How long did you wait til yours arrived from the time they said they were sending it?
