I saw on CNN's Headline News last week, that the popular Gift cards for stores are not always redeemed in time. It seems reasonable enough, being cards are lost, misplaced, or forgotten before they expired. BestBuy (the consumer electronics store) reported that in 2005, the amount of unredeemed BestBuy gift cards totaled $42 million dollars! I wonder how much the other giants (Sears, Lowes, HD, etc.) gained in unredeemed gift cards.
