The idea of a gift card is great as long as the Pearson you are giving it to is not old and forgetful. My dear old Mom opened this package at Christmas and most likely put it with the wrapping paper she throws out. Bummer!!!!Great last minute Christmas gift!For the person who has everythingGot this for my mom as a birthday present since she is elderly and loves to read.A+A+This gift is exactly what I envisioned it to be. It came as is, in a cute little box with a bow.This was a gift for a family member who could use it in so many ways..for clothing, books, personal care, etc. Who can't find something they need at Amazon?It was perfect for her.
