Oh apparently it's a UK thing. Don't know why it would be illegal here but whatever since you're not legally allowed to give money to the mail chick then fine give her gift cards but also write your congressman to change the law so you don't have to do that bull****. I'm sure if you asked her after a few drinks she'd take a check over a gift card in a heartbeat.

1. It is not more special than cash. Gift cards are a marketing loophole to trick people into thinking they can essentially just give people cash.
2. Gift cards are just another form of monetary value and if you're exchanging gift cards then you're swapping money. At least a REAL gift would have some emotional value other than just money.
