People wrote around what it is. It's a gift. I can get you a new lamp after hearing you need one that you won't like or I can find a close, fancy shop with lamps, get gift card and give it to you.

Cash always has more important things to get spent on. Gift card are just this - gifts. Shitty ones, like for whole mall, are sad. Specific ones are great, they give you choice while clearly showing thought and care.

Hell. Both cash and non-specific gift cards aren't even gifts imo, there's no care nor thought behind them.
