I just came across an interesting site that might come in handy at this time of year. It’s called Swapagift.com It’s one of the leading internet sites for buying gift cards at a discount to their balance. They also sell and swap your unwanted gift cards.

How can you use something like this? Well, maybe someone gives you a gift certificate card for a particular store, but you can’t find anything that you really want at that store.

Go to Swap a Gift and browse through the available cards that you could buy or swap your current gift card for and end up getting one for a store that carries the items that you would really like to purchase.

Users can swap cards directly, buy cards from Swapagift.com at a discount, or you depending upon the value of the cards users can swap one card for several other cards.

If there’s a card that you really would like to have for your own but your card isn’t of equal value you can sweeten the deal by adding some cash to the transaction. You could even sell your card for cash by listing it for sale if you don’t want to swap for another type of card, in that manner you could either sell it to Swapagift.com users or to Swapagift.com itself or through one of it’s 250+ retail locations.
