A friend recently asked me, "is it OK to give gift cards"?  SURE - and no reason why you can't get creative about it.  You could create a whole gift around gift cards - dinner, a movie, drinks - the ideas are endless. I particularly like this Gift Card Tree from Simply Creative Insanity.   I wrote some other ideas about spicing up gift cards here.

Happy Gifting!
