Gift cards are the worst presents

I’m 37 now but when I was a kid you got cash orGift cards. I always hated getting either because I had to save for 3 years to get something cool. I’m not lazy I’m just impatient.<br><br>Edit 1: to those that say gift cards are for people you don’t know well. I don’t want a gift from someone I don’t know well enough. <br><br>Edit 2: I always ask for a specific gift, if I don’t get it I return it and get a gift card to a store I like and save it until the price drops low enough.
