Since it's a gift given to me I focus on my wants because I want to feel good about what I bought. For the stuff I need that can be used with my own money.

How do you use it?

I would use it for something I want. But, it depends on the store.

Yeah like if it's Target or Bed Bath and Beyond it's a combination of both! :) If it's JC Penney or Macy's I get something nice to wear even if I don't need it! ;)

the checking account is for ALL NEEDS lol

the additional accounts and gift cards are for things to make me SMILE:lol:

For wants. In fact I just bought a book for a class next semester but paid cash. I received an Amazon card and I'm going to buy DVDs (they are having an awesome sale btw).

Downtown Philly is turning out to be A$$:lol:

No Walmart, No Target, No Malls, No Music stores lol


I don't think I can use a gift card for a online purchase can I?

If you've got a gift card I'd say buy something nice for yourself. There's a time for needs and a time for wants, and a gift card is meant for wants so you should enjoy yourself.

Usually you can.

Yeah I think so too! ;) Not sure how a Visa gift card would work, but one year I got a Macy's gift card and ordered online with that! There should be a number code on the card is how you do it! ;)

Pretty sure Visa gift cards you would be able to order online too! ;)

Visa gift cards work like regular credit cards, I've used them for various online sites, it'll have a website to access so you can see how much you have left.

I need to make a decision

Indeed so! I used one for $25 to Amazon that my brother Mike gave me to get the lot of the 1958-60 Darren McGavin Mike Hammer syndicated series.

I was thinking since it's $20 I will use it for dinner on Friday night. That wasn't the original plan but I can't think of anything I can get for that low amount. And when I say dinner I mean something I enjoy eating like nachos or seafood.
