I have a few gift cards
Longhorn
Honey Baked Ham
Some Mexican Restaurant that is closed
AMC
Etc....


Found a website but you list the card and someone has to buy the card. Is there a place you can exchange and get the cash off of the card for a fee?

There’s an app called Raise that I’ve gotten rid of a few on before. You’ll have to discount them a bit to love them

Unless they're high value doesn't seem like it would be worth hassle with the fees/discount to sell or exchange. I'd either just use them (you gotta eat) or give them to a friend or relative that would appreciate the gesture and put them to good use. (Not as a holiday or b-day gift) just a "hey I appreciate you and thought you might enjoy this card I found lying around" heck take someone out to eat and just get a drink if you hate the food.

Give them to a child to play with. Nobody else is going to give you anything for them.

You don’t like steak? Or ham? Give them to a hungry person.

Thought there used to be a place that would buy them for a hefty fee or that you could convert to cash

People that will buy gift cards for places that are no longer in business or cards that are lost? That’s what I was responding to. I seriously doubt it, but maybe you are correct.

I don't follow. If the place is out of business and has no affiliate businesses it's going to be worthless.

There are websites that will buy them from you for cash or exchange them. I use CardCash.com when I want to exchange one out for something I would prefer.

Have a gas station in BR corner of College and Corporate that has a sign that they will purchase them. I want to say .60 on the dollar.
