I was referred to this location by a couple of my friends that swear by this place.  I decided to do something really nice for my significant other for his birthday back in October.  After purchasing this gift certificate my significant other was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer and has not felt well enough to go get a manicure until today.  This would be his first manicure ever, but upon calling to set up an appointment, he was told \"Too bad, it expired\".  He is such a nice guy that he was ok with it and told me he was sorry but could not use the G.C.  I was so upset that I contacted the owner who informed me that he did not care, my bf should have said he was battling brain cancer and he would only accept half of the value of the gift card.  To me this really suck because when you purchase a G.C. this is as good as cash or treated as equal to it.  I do not think he should have to say by the way I have stage 4 brain cancer, can you please make an acception, but seriously to claim that all of their gift cards only have a 3 month \"shelf life\" is HORRIBLE!!  I did check with my friends who do visit this location did have G.C. which all had 6 month or more expiration dates on it.  The owner even talked to me like I was a complete idiot and told that I should learn what date it actually is right now because it has been longer than 3 months.
