Visa Gift cards are a thing. They can be used anywhere Visa is accepted. Those are the kinds I get when I gift, gift cards.
Which is in most stores, key word being Most.
My brother explicitly asked for a Roblox gift card (birthday in a month), or at least I wish that’s the way you buy Robux and other stuff without direct payment.
I may be wrong but I believe surprise gift of that product to someone very close is the best gift than cash/gift cards. Wrapping it as present will double the surprise. You remember the person with that product (be it small or big). However good research and study is required.
I gifted my cousin “Detroit Become Human” game disc on his birthday as a surprise after spying all his games in the shelves. Later I found he already has the online version of this game (and I was always offline that time). Poor research and a blooper from my side .
It happens, we receive multiple non-edible gift of the same kind. I got 3 toaster on my marriage day from guests and two of them are still unused in the store room. Gifts as chocolate/sweets are the safer side but they goes in and gets digested and forgotten by few people
And cash is the wise option for not so close or formal ones, as we can combine multiple cash gifts to buy a bigger useful gift, but some people feels the amount as offending and tries to repay the same amount to you.Hence we remove the price from the product gifts.
We put cash in an envelope and present but that is too formal and doesnot have that surprise vibe. Gift cards are only limited to that store/website as mentioned in previous posts.
Speaking of X-Mas… And before it’s way too late (like by tomorrow)
If you didn’t have a specific item you were wanting as a present and the gift you got was any of these… which would you prefer?
- An article of clothing
- A seasonal food item that’s typically available during the Holidays
- A Gift Card from a place I like to shop or eat, or Cash

- Something to keep me busy (book, puzzle, craft project, board game, video game, etc.)
- Something for the kitchen
- Something for the bath/shower
- Something for my automobile (or other form of transportation)
- Hygiene or personal grooming related products

I’ve been giving books to anyone I’m supposed to give a gift to since I was like 8 or 9. Others, based on an unwritten pact, give me books as well (most of the times if not all…)
I would definitely want something music or book related for Christmas and Birthdays personally, but a game or money/gift card are also accepted
Before streaming became the way of the music world I would always have preferred an album or a an mp3 (like you could get me an iTunes gift card and say “it’s for the new Cannons album/single”).
Now I want concert tickets to anything really.
- Breakfast
- Lunch
- Dinner

Food
I grew up calling Lunch as Dinner, and Dinner as Tea. I was the only one in my home village who did (yes i once asked everyone who would actually answer to a 9 year old)
I wonder who says it like me on the Forum?
Those terms usually have a time of day when they’re more appropriate to use.
Breakfast: Obviously in the morning, typically after so many hours after waking up… But I suppose it could used for any meal after coming off from a fast, and that could be any time during the day.
Lunch is typically during the afternoon, around 12 till maybe 3 or 4.
Dinner and Supper… I’ve always thought of them being interchangeable. But apparently Dinner would be a main meal, while supper would be a lighter meal. Typically consumed in the evening hours of the day.
Brunch (imo) is a late morning snack.
Edit: Here’s a term! Vittles? Victuals. Not sure what they’d refer to (outside of just googling it ). It is, however, a word I dislike since it’s pronounced differently than what it reads as.
Grub…
Breakfast - the thing I eat when I wake up (any time between 6 and 9 depending on the day), usually cereal, yoghurt or toast
Lunch - the middle meal of the three, eaten at any time between half 9 and 2ish
Dinner/Tea - evening meal, usually eaten between 6 and 7
For reference, I’m British and usually say tea instead of dinner, but they are definitely interchangeable. I never say supper, unless asking my mates if they have supp’d as part of a joke.
Somebody is feeding people premium, freshly prepared food and letting them know in an easy manner where they can go get it? That is a high quality Christian education, to those who pay attention real Christian teachings. I’m pretty sure my man Jesus “J.C.” De La Christ did that very thing.
Plus, the whole red and black paint scheme seems a bit Devilish.
Well, put together it’s Christmasy, but I see what you mean.
While the green, yellow and white would suggest…
I already went to Catholic school and actually was quite good with the teachers and study plans, so now I’m choosing the delicious food.
But there’s no “I pick both” option.
