Okay, not literally, but I would appreciate some suggestions. My medical insurance plan offers wellness points that can be converted point-for-dollar into gift cards for most major retailers and online outlets. This year's total was $125! Since Groovy Game Gear, Ultimarc, Lizard Lick and like were not the list of stores *snort* I went ahead and chose Amazon.com. I know that there's TONS of computer hardware available on Amazon, and I guess I could go that route, but I'm really looking to use this GC on something arcade specific. Anyone have any suggestions on what I should spend my (free) money on?

You could pick up the Dragon's Lair game DVDs.

This one time, I used an Amazon gift card to send books to someone in jail.
Right around the time Amazon started requiring you give them credit card info to use a gift card.
By the time they shipped them, he was already out, so the jail marked returned to sender on the box and tossed it back.
I was charged a return shipping fee (huh?) and a restocking fee for each book, they ended up charging my credit card.
:soapbox:
Don't associate with criminals and you'll be just fine.
I give them away or throw them in the trash if someone 'gifts' me with them now.
Couldn't you just buy something for yourself and send it to your address (assuming you are not in jail)?

I paid taxes and duty on my roms at the border. That makes them legal now. I'll misquote online sources to prove my point if you make me.
To the OP: if you sell the card on Ebay, then you have cash. With cash, you can spend your reward on ale and whores. Ale and whores are better than Dragon's Lair and Space Ace, so I retract my first suggestion.

I don't get the obsession with this movie. There have been several threads about it lately. It was a good movie, but not the greatest... :dunno
