Shopping vouchers / gift cards

[puntingking]

For peoples birthdays rather than hunting around for things to get them and guessing what they may or may not like I rather play it safe and get gift vouchers instead. I got a few love2shop vouchers and the post office vouchers one that they do called oneforall. Are there any other gift vouchers out there where you can spend on many other retailers using only one digital card or voucher? Preferably high street retailers as its good to support them during Covid times rather than the online ones.
I also been searching the Web for a entertainment gift voucher where you can spend a voucher on leisure and entertainment facilities but I can't seem to find it one such voucher even exists.

Amazon voucher

can literally buy almost anything off their platform and no chance of them going bust and the voucher becoming worthless

Wilko have a big rack of cards for various shops inc Amz (already mentioned).  Other shops such as supermarkets have similar racks.

The INTU shopping malls do a gift card that can be used in most of the shops in the mall.

Ok. Thanks. Is this word banned on here or something?
Why are you covering the letters with xxx? I know what word you mean. I will avoid using the word until I know the reason for why you chose not to use the word. 

Thanks. I will check out aXxxxx voucher (as you put it)

Yes but cash is not much of a gift. Knowing people that I know it may go on food and things they need rather than things they want.

I want to buy them a gift not to play a part in paying their wages. Thats what their jobs are for.

So a gift voucher is a perfect way in having to give them a gift from a selection of high street fashionable retailers that they may like to pay for something that they may actually want rather than me wasting my money in guessing what they want and they may not like it.

I will no way give cash for birthdays or Christmas presents for friends and family.

I'd be a little wary of gift cards for high street stores as you never know which store might go bust next. 

Gift cards for Amazon or love2shop might be safer. Personally, I just give cash. It's then up to the recipient how they choose to spend it.  They could use it to pay bills or save for a holiday overseas. It's their money and their choice how to spend it.  I don't like receiving gift cards. I prefer a present someone has selected for me provided they know my likes, which most people don't, so I end up with presents I never use.  Cash is boring.
