    Default Giftcards For Charity?

    Ok so I read 8 billion dollars go to waste a year on unspent giftcards. My idea was this, create a site where people could mail you their unused giftcards to you, whether they have 10 cents on them, or 10 dollars, and for any company. Then you'd get together with the various companies, like lets say Target, to accept hundreds of giftcards at once and give you a new one with the combined total, and you purchase food, toys, etc, for less fortunate people. Think it's a good idea? Or would people just not take the time to do it.

    Well, I think part of the problem with the unspent giftcards is laziness and forgetfulness. So it's a nice idea in theory, but if I've ever not used a giftcard, its b/c I've lost it.

    Yeah that's true, there might be people that just have very low amounts on there that just don't use them because it's so low and they're just sitting around.
