Clever marketing, but generates waste
I normally like cute little tins like this. They can be used for storage of buttons, screws, tacks, coins, etc. But this one is not just a top and bottom with a removable gift card holder. The bottom has a rectangular slot cut out with a plastic window sloppily glued in so the barcode on the gift card can be scanned. This, in my opinion, ruins the uniqueness of the tin and once the plastic (easily) breaks out, it's not an effective storage tin.<br /><br />Thus it becomes trash and adds - at least a little - to some landfill. If you're going to give a gift card, of course do it. But perhaps think about the residue that will be left behind once the gift card is used. Is it any less thoughtful to send an e-gift-card code? Virtually no waste involved with that method. :-)
