um, a general Thank you to whoever gave me this gift card would make for a perfect response to the family, and as stated, you can always look up the balance online. As far as the who it was from and amount via GS, valid point, others may not agree, but I get it. I have a card floating around that I have no clue how much is on it, nor where I got it from, and worse, when I look it up online, it doesn't tell me what the balance is, or what it was limited to. Now that is frustrating, especially for a universal Visa card.
