I understand what you are saying...but to me..these would make awesome gifts! I plan on buying a few more for coworkers. Money is so tight for everyone right now, I'm sure most people would love the fact that they can go to a restaurant, buy appertizers, entrees, and desserts and only have to pay 10 bucks. Well..let's just hope they love them..because that's what they are getting from me for Christmas! hahahahaha
