Cupid’s Heart Is Set on Valentine Gift Cards in 2011

Feb. 3, 2011 - PRLog -- Following the holiday shopping season by only a couple of months, February 2011 is anticipated to be yet another hot period for gift card sales. A representative from Get Free Gift Cards Online says more and more couples are declaring "I love you" by exchanging gift cards for Valentine’s Day.

"While I would not recommend Valentine gift cards for newly dating couples, couples who have been together for awhile recognize the practicality, convenience, and cost-savings of a well-planned gift card for Valentine’s Day," states Michelle Price, Marketing Relationship Manager for Get Free Gift Cards Online. "Younger people do tend to be more appreciative and accepting toward gift cards than older generations."

Giving Valentine gift cards is no longer a taboo act. Because gift cards and electronic gift certificates reduce the stress of choosing the right product, size, and color, they are a popular choose for gift-givers. Recipients like them because they do not have to deal with awkward thank-you’s or discrete exchanges.

"While most of our business happens around the holidays, we have launched a collection of free gift cards that are popular for Valentine’s Day. People like to give romantic dinners at their favorite restaurants; hobby gift cards to retailers like Best Buy, Apple, and Cabela’s; or even all-purpose Amazon.com gift cards. We offer a basic Valentine's gift-giving guide at http://getfreegiftcardsonline.blogspot.com/2011/01/valent...," said Price.

"People who are still afraid to give Valentine gift cards alone can combine them with love poems, a hand-crafted present, or a theme package. It’s all about the overall thought. There’s nothing more romantic than turning to your partner and proving that you not only know what that person likes but also want to give something extra special."
