WATCH: Tips and tricks to use holiday gift cards
Gift cards have long been a go-to gift for holidays, birthdays and special occasions. They're the perfect solution for those hard-to-shop-for loved ones, offering endless possibilities from splurging at their favorite store to trying a trendy restaurant or pampering themselves with a spa day.
With so many options, it's no surprise that gift cards remain one of the most popular gifts year after year. Yet, while gift cards are incredibly convenient, they often go unused -- they've been misplaced, forgotten about, simply overlooked or it's hard to decipher what's worth buying.
That's a lot of lattes, shoes and streaming subscriptions left on the table! The good news? A little mindfulness, like organizing your cards in a digital wallet or setting a reminder to redeem them, can help ensure those thoughtful gifts don't go to waste.
To help you make good use of those gift cards, "GMA" lifestyle contributor Lori Bergamotto has highlighted some amazing products that are well worth your spend -- including picks under $25!
