Some people are very hard to please when it comes to gifts (we all know one or two of those, let’s face it). That’s where gift cards come to the rescue. As long as you know what brands they love to shop at or where they love to eat, you’re golden. No need to pick a specific gift: Let them have the honor of doing that. Amazon has recently rolled out some insane deals on gift cards that will help you shop for anyone and everyone on your list. Here are out top gift card picks as of December 7:
Best gift card deals at Amazon
Gifting season is exhausting — humans were simply not made to online shop for everyone on their Instagram “Close Friends” list. To make matters a little easier and fun, Amazon is currently offering promotional credits when you buy gift cards over a certain $$$ amount from select brands (a little self-gift for being Santa Claus, you could say). In addition, some gift cards are on discount as part of Lightning Deals for Prime members. See for yourself what we deemed the best gift card deals of the season.
Biggest savings overall

Point to one (1) person that wouldn’t benefit from a staycation or full-fledged vacation right about now. Yeah, you can’t. That’s why an Airbnb gift card is such a people pleaser. Give them $250 worth of Airbnb cash to spend on their next fairytale getaway to the woods, and, at the same time, receive $25 in Amazon credits with the code AIRBNB at checkout. Generosity pays back. Told you so.
Best food gift card deal

Just one mention of the ubiquitous International House of Pancakes is enough to get anyone drooling. Freezing temps and overcast days practically beg for a trip to the nearest IHOP for a short stack (or two, or three), so this gift card is sure to deliver. Plus, you’ll only pay $39.50 for a card worth $50 (if you’re a Prime member). That’s like, eight hickory-smoked bacon strips’ worth of savings.
Best non-food gift card deal

Society has yet to crack Victoria’s sneaky secret, but your secret this holiday season will be that you spent $40 on someone’s VS gift card instead of the full $50 amount. This purchase is perfect for your niece who loves the brand’s artificial-smelling lotions, your sister who needs a lingerie upgrade, or basically anyone who is easily enticed by sexy underwear. Make them (and your wallet) feel confident by snagging this gift card ASAP. PS: You do need to be a Prime member to take full advantage of these savings.
