Great notice there, Ken.

We need to be very careful with gift cards this year. Once the store closes, the money those are worth is gone.

Dang, PacSun is closing? That was one of my favorite stores!

*edit* Looks like they're not closing all their stores, just that shoe store and urban (read: hip-hop wannabe) store thing that they had. Phew!

I'm surprised Circuit City isn't on that list.

Interesting. All of our gift cards are still good for the time being, but you never know where the company might be at in a few months, especially if this holiday season sucks.

Yup, I still got those too. I think in high school I had the black and white checkered ones.
