Gift vouchers...

Mood: Tired but reasonably happy!
Listening to: Boom Boom Boom Boom - Vengaboys (not my choice OK!!! It's on the radio!)

When you buy a gift voucher for someone, do you believe it's fair that the gift voucher is only valid for, say, 3 months?

I think it's wrong.  You pay your money for a gift voucher and expect the recipient to receive the goods or services as described on the gift voucher and not have a time limit placed on it. 

Betty has decided that she is going to be strict with the gift vouchers and if people haven't used their gift vouchers within a three month period, too bad, they get nothing.  I think that sucks.  It's daylight robbery really, "I will take your money but if you don't use the voucher when it suits ME, I'll keep your money & the services as described on the gift voucher". 

I certainly wouldn't be buying a gift voucher from anywhere that has such unreasonable conditions.

    What sort of service is she offering?

I once went to get my sister a gift voucher at a sunglasses shop and it was only valid for about 3 months! It\'s ridiculous, it\'s as good as money, which can be used at any time, so too should the gift voucher!!

    Betty is a masseur!
