The holidays are over and you’ve probably got a few gift cards lying around that you can’t see yourself using in the near future. Yes, the $25 to Best Buy from your uncle was a nice thought, but it’s not going to put as much as a nibble in that iPad price tag. Sigh.
Grimey’s “Gift Up” program might be the way to get more bang for your buck. Bring in your unused corporate gift cards, and they’ll give you a store credit for the amount of the card. The fine print: the card must be from a chain that sells music in physical formats and can not be a retailer that is going out-of-business. The amount on the card must be verifiable by phone or internet and cannot expire within six months.
Double down on the savings by using your gift certificate on Grimey’s 10% off used merchandise Mondays (excludes dollar LPs and CDs under $5).
Look how resourceful you are! I mean, what’s cooler – additions to your growing record collection or a jug of milk and bag of trail mix from Target?
