A gift card is a type of prepaid card that can be used to undertake financial transactions. A gift card can only be used in the store from where it was purchased, or any other branch of that store. For example, a Wegmans gift card can be used only to purchase goods at Wegmans, not at any other store. Often, grocery stores have their gift cards and other stores’ gift cards too. You can either gift them to someone else or use them for yourself. For a birthday gift or a housewarming gift, these cards are quite handy. Wegmans does sell and accept gift cards. You can purchase other stores’ gift cards in addition to their own if you physically go to their stores. To buy third-party gift cards, there are no additional charges that you will have to pay at Wegmans. Only in the case of monetary gift cards like Visa, you might have to pay charges up to $5. On the Wegmans website, you can only buy their gift cards, not other third-party stores’ gift cards.
