Feelin' broke these days? Well you're not the only one in the world! Tons of companies and people are filing for bankruptcy as the dwindling economy leaves them with not much breathing room in the profit area of business and life. But what happens when a company you know and love files for bankruptcy?
Firstly, where are you going to shop now? This happened to me a few years ago...my most favorite boutique that carried exactly the things I loved finally announced that it would be having a super blow out sale and then...nothing afterwards. Wow, was I really going to be subjected to a life in the malls and .com sites? At this point, the answer is yes. So for all you online shoppers in the same boat as myself, you'll be excited to hear about GiftCardRescue.com.
This gift card website leads you to still be in control of your gifts for once and for all - if a company you hold a card for from the website goes under, you will be reimbursed for your loss - genius! This will last until March 31, 2010, so after Christmas be sure to check up on what you received over the holidays. And of course, be sure to tell everyone you know so you get and receive from GiftCardRescue.com to be safe!
"With the holiday season quickly approaching, this is the peak time for gift card purchase and redemption,” stated Kwame Kuadey, CEO, GiftCardRescue.com. “Holiday shopping should be an enjoyable experience, rather than one that causes worry and anxiety. We wanted to give our customers the assurance that their discounted gift card purchases through GiftCardRescue.com are safe from retailer bankruptcy.” Go for a Sunglass Hut or a Borders, start gifting!
