Why not just give cash and not limit where the person could use it?
I hate giving gift cards and will not usually unless it's a specific request. That being said, I buy the hell out of gift cards but not for gifts. Churn churn churn....

I love a gift card. If anyone ever gives me cash it ends up being used to buy lunch, or give it to my wife if she needs some, or buy something at a gas station, etc. My birthday was a week ago. My little sister got me a Home Depot gift card. She knows I'm usually doing something around the house and I can use that. My older sister just put $33 in a card. I turned 33, and I guess that was her way of trying to be cute about just giving me cash. I think I used it to buy some pizza and something else last week. No idea.
Amazon gift cards are always great. You don't even have to go to a store to use them. I tell my family members to get those for myself and my wife. We're always ordering something with the free prime shipping, so they definitely get used. Half the time I get a gift card I forget to put it in my wallet and then I'm at the store digging through it trying to find it before paying and realize I left it at home.
