Taking a moment to collectively pause from the surreal moments that surround us during the COVID-19 crisis, National Nurses Day is an opportunity to get present to a true national treasure: our beloved nurses and nurse practitioners. In this heartfelt Thank You Note, we extend an outpouring of gratitude, honor and respect to nursing staff on the front lines — and all those behind the scenes that love and support them. If you ask a nurse what makes them tick, they would probably mention the satisfaction around helping people get well and stay healthy. Which is precisely why every American should take an extra beat to extend a bow of thanks and appreciation. By their very nature, nurses are humble. Nurses are selfless. And compassionate. And, highly expert. If we recall the vulnerable medical moments in our lives, we may be astounded to realize just how often their comfort and care helped navigate scary situations and carried us (and our loved ones) to safety.

Nurses, The Best Friends to Have

If you’re lucky enough to have a nurse in the family, you never have to handle your healthcare concerns alone. Even when they’re not on the job, they ARE on the job! If you’re lucky enough to have a nurse in your circle of friends, you can attest to their generosity in every way, especially tips on nutrition, mental health and well being. And if you’re lucky enough to call a nurse your friend, you get the benefit of being in life together, authentically and honestly. That may be the greatest gift of all.  

We Thank You.

Your commitment to caring for others inspires us. Your ability to consume complex information during life and death moments and spring into instant action amazes us. Your unshakeable commitment to those you love moves us. Your willingness to deliver necessary medical care to the sick and suffering, even while standing in harm’s way, saves us.

A Token of Appreciation

It’s not always easy to find ways to say thanks. Sometimes, words fail us. Some of us have a hard time speaking from our heart, for fear that our tears may overtake our voices. But, now more than ever, we want you to know that we love and appreciate you, deeply.

For those among us that are doers, like the nurses we love, here are some tangible ways you can show your love.

• Tag a nurse on social media so they can read this Thank You letter — and add our own personal message along with
• Perform a random act of kindness to someone who isn’t expecting it
• Make a donation to a health related cause in their honor
• Send a Dunkin‘, Peets or Sheetz gift card by email or text — and deliver an after-shift soothing beverage of hot tea or flavored decaf

Giving gift cards to mothers and grandmothers on Mother’s Day is a natural choice, especially on May 10th, 2020 — the year of social distancing. While it’s best for us all to stay apart a while longer, we can still create closeness today. Sending a special, hand picked gift card wrapped inside a digital greeting card is a great way to deliver happiness and delight to Mom. At eGifter.com, the selection of well known and specialty retail brands makes for a true shopping experience — from the safety and comfort of your home. As thousands of gift-card givers already know, warm sentiment combined with cool gift cards can do a lot of hearts a-lot-of-good. On the one day each year reserved to honor to those that love US the most, we salute *all* the Moms with a curated Guide to Mother’s Day Gift Cards — courtesy of eGifter.com.

There’s Nothing like a Mother’s Love

When it comes to moms, one thing is for sure: A mother’s love is like nothing else in the world. The mix of unconditional love, fierce protection, self sacrifice and bursting pride help build the steady ground upon which our entire lives take shape. Moms quietly and powerfully instill valuable life lessons and values from our birthday candle moments – to reassuring conversations after disappointments – to boundary setting when needed. In the rear view mirror of life, we realize their every intention was borne from love and commitment — whether or not we knew it at the time. Just notice the popsicle stick photo frames and handmade crayon cards *still* on display. Through it all, Moms love us in ways we may not always understand…until we have children of our own. 🙂

A Quiet Word for Days Gone By.

We may wish we could hear her laughter one more time. Or, sing that song together — the one she loved so much. Still, we can take a quiet, prayerful moment to tell her what she may have never heard us say: She was the best mother that anyone could ever have.

Finding simple sources of comfort and ways to help have become standard orders of the day during COVID-19. These include things like finding the helpers (and being the helpers), giving of ourselves (and gift cards when we can) and staying safe (more to the point, staying home). Perhaps the silver lining to this incredibly challenging time will be a collective, newfound focus on resilience, solidarity and ingenuity. Remaining united and surfacing our unshakeable human spirit may well be the gifts that keep giving long after the health, social and economic pressures of COVID-19 have subsided. 

Helping Families and Communities Survive and Thrive 

The sage advice from Mr. Rogers, famed children’s television personality, would have us look for the helpers. It’s easy to find them. Just look for the drive-by parades through parking lots of nursing homes and assisted living facilities. The outpouring of love, thanks and recognition to our homebound elders are amazing gifts, indeed.

Gift Cards Can Help You Make a Difference Today

If you’re searching for a way to give an affordable, meaningful gift to someone that can really use it, here are a few ideas to consider:

• Donate meals from local restaurants to feed healthcare workers through take-out or delivery services. The restaurant and your local economy will benefit, too. Here are a few restaurants to choose from (more at eGifter.com): Applebee’s gift cards, Outback gift cards (or any Bloomin’ Brand), Boston Market gift cards, Chili’s Bar and Grill gift cards, Doordash gift cards, Ruby Tuesday gift cards, Jersey Mike’s Subs gift cards, TGIFridays gift cards, or Uber Eats gift cards
• Find a local blood drive and donate much needed blood or platelets (search Red Cross locations)
• Drop off food at your local food pantry. If you can’t get there personally or want to contribute to a food donation center at a distant location, you can easily deliver groceries by sending them a Target gift card or Walmart gift card
• Encourage your local Chamber of Commerce to claim their FREE listing at OperationMainStreet.com. Doing so can have a dramatically positive impact on helping your local business community and their employees survive the economic downturn of COVID-19
• Send a gift card to purchase a vegetable garden — deliver the gift card by text or email . With both online and in-store redemption, Home Depot gift cards and Lowe’s gift cards let them purchase seeds and starter plants for vegetables and fruit that can actually feed a family
• Help them to help others! Donate fabric for masks by sending Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores gift card to the crafty people you know. The shortfall of masks for local businesses and healthcare locations can be built up with this grassroots effort.
• Call the seniors and singles in your life just to say hello. It may be the only friendly, personal voice they hear today.

Long live compassion and perseverance — the hidden gifts that have emerged from this historically significant time.

Please share your own story of optimism, healing and the human spirit.

We always love serving Fanatics customers and we’re delighted to offer a limited time special promotion with deep savings while Fanatics gift card supplies last. Through 4/24/20, get a $50 Fanatics Gift Card for just $42.50 (promo Code: FANS420. But our ability to offer great deals and savings to Fanatics gift card customers is not what makes us proud at this particular moment. In our opinion, it takes more than great products, services, gift card distribution, customer service and engineering innovation for a business to transform from great to truly legendary, like Fanatics. To that end, Michael Rubin and the entire Fanatics team get kudos for demonstrating the manufacturing prowess and heart for which America has always been known. American pride, indeed.

Manufacturing Ingenuity: A Heroic Response

A Clear Gap Becomes Apparent

As the nation and the world watched the vertical climb of statistical rates of infection, hospitalizations and mortality, one of the most reported shortfalls in our ability to respond became clear. Healthcare workers were becoming dramatically limited in their ability to perform front line jobs due to a lack of personal protective equipment (PPE). As we watched news footage and read news articles, the PPE deficit occurred as insurmountable. 

Enter Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, who began to lose sleep along with the rest of us, wondering how to make a difference in the fight against the COVID-19 virus pandemic that continues to rock the world. On March 17, he heard about the shortages of tests, respirators and everyday supplies that created severe challenges for health-care workers. In the uniquely powerful position of running a massive fabric-based production operation in the U.S., Rubin would soon realize an opportunity in the making. 

Pause on Jersey Production. Pivot to Masks & Gowns.

Like other countless numbers of manufacturing facilities forced to the sidelines due to restrictions imposed by social distancing, health concerns, governmental restrictions, supply chain limitations, depressed demand and more, Fanatics’ manufacturing operations were halted. Bottom line, no baseball season meant no production. From there, it did not take long for Rubin to realize that a million yards of fabric intended to manufacture baseball uniforms were lying dormant at the company’s manufacturing facility in Easton, PA. 

One Million Masks and Gowns, Coming Right Up.

Said Rubin in a telephone interview, ““When the country is in need the way it is, it’s our privilege and opportunity to try to chip in in a small way. If we can save even one life, that’s better than making baseball uniforms and jerseys.” And so began the collaboration between Major League Baseball and its official jersey manufacturer, Fanatics, to address the shortage of protective masks and gowns for hospital workers. There are now about 100 employees working “extra distanced and in a very clean and safe environment” to make one million masks and gowns to donate to hospitals in Pennsylvania, with the hopes of eventually extending this to New Jersey and New York.” Fanatics and MLB are taking on the cost of production.

We Salute the Leaders and Innovators Among Us

There is no shortage of lessons to be learned from sharp and committed business leaders like Michael Rubin, CEO of our retail gift card partner, Fanatics. With an unprecedented need for solutions dictated by our very survival, we’re convinced that goodness and innovation will emerge, mirroring the bold initiatives taken by Rubin and those on his team.

It will take a set of complex business, manufacturing and human mandates, simply stated below, to lead the way forward.

• Adapt
• Pivot
• Transform
• Persevere
• Care.

Challenging and unprecedented times like these call for innovation, freedom and ease. That’s why we created three specialty eGifter Choice Cards — so that our shopping and gifting community can enjoy a wide selection of gift cards within the category they prefer. As a mechanism to help make time at home more comfortable during the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve streamlined the process of choosing and sending gift cards in ways that matter today. To purchase gift cards for movies and content, games or food services, now you can simply buy a SINGLE card in one of three categories: The eGifter Streaming, Gaming or Takeout Choice Cards. At checkout, apply the balance to any one of the gift cards shown below. No one in your household will run out of content to watch, games to play or food and meals to takeout.

It’s our honor, commitment and responsibility to continue inventing secure, special and pragmatic ways to serve you and your family through gift card solutions.

Please share your gift card experiences and stories with us at support.egifter.com.

With a gift card marketplace that carries over 300+ retail brands that can be purchased and sent both digitally (text, email, print) and physically (plastic), we realize there is something for everyone. Certainly, we built a cadre of personalization options to make gift giving special and memorable. But what delights us every day is hearing from shoppers and recipients who describe their gifting experience in detail — bringing to life the delight and satisfaction that is bundled with their gift card purchase or receipt.

“Egifter has been a reliable source of electronic gift cards for me. They have a rock solid rewards program that has earned me credit towards gift card purchases, and they accept a large variety of payment methods. This has enabled me to have near limitless flexibility in terms of being able to purchase the goods and services I want to. Egifter is a top notch choice for gift cards in my opinion.”

Our thanks to Tasha for this Guest Blog post (as written on our Trustpilot Review site)! She tells us how last minute gifts saved the day.

“I was basically desperate, looking for the perfect gifts for 3 of my 4 kids – last minute, and after banking hours…unfortunately for my near zilch pocketbook!

I needed the ability to purchase with my PayPal account and have immediate access (or at least within a day of pickup access) to my purchases.

I cannot thank or even begin to show my gratitude toward eGifter and its reliability during the very stressful holiday season! Soaring beyond any expectations with the service, actual usage of the services provided, ease of use with the site, the ability to access and pay for the services they provide, and lastly, the different levels of safety that I have yet to see with any other online sites that involve purchasing with PayPal (or any way of purchasing, actually!)

It was very fast, beyond what I was looking for this Christmas and resulted in it being what my own children called, ” the best Christmas EVER!”

This is not from a dollar stance or from a materialistic view, I have realized. This was mainly due to the fact that I wasn’t frantically running around with my usual overly stressed and often ending in a fight with my husband after a financially based issue that happened at the usual last minute retail store we visit!

In the past, THAT has been our experience: It’s Christmas even, the store is closing as we head to checkout line with our big ticket items in buggy. To our dismay and shock, our bank gives us MORE trouble with our debit card due to a suspected issue with fraud or something else. (That “something else” has thus far always been due to our own purchases being denied in a former transaction resulting in an authorization hold. We would never have anticipated that red flag!)

In those terrible past experiences, we felt so low that we started to fight immediately! We blaming each other even though neither of us were at fault — EVER!

Those past moments of embarrassment and upset had us leave the store empty handed to call our bank. I remember struggling to regain my self respect and self confidence, which I am sorry to say.

But I CAN say (so joyfully!) that THIS Christmas, I had NONE of that! While I was indeed a last minute holiday shopper, this year has been a truly memorable experience.

I know for sure that my great experience was due to my before-hand purchasing of gift cards as a backup in case we had any issues. Though I try to be proactive now, who needs a nervous breakdown in the middle of Walmart on Christmas eve?!

Not me, not this year! Or ever again!

Thanks eGifter, for the ability to buy with unusually unacceptable means and making it beyond easy and super fast! I owe you more than money can make up for, for certain!

Thanks, and may God bless anyone affiliated with eGifter.com!”

It was a crisp New England day and our guests were set to arrive in 90 minutes. All systems were go. The turkey was golden brown and resting nicely as instructed by our son the rising star chef. A bountiful harvest of vegetables and side dishes were warming on the buffet in chafing dishes. The table was set beautifully with our favorite tablecloth and flowers, just right. The carefully selected playlist was queued up and ready to go.

I turned up the volume on the tunes and began to turn my attention to the toast, gathering a pen and pad to transfer thoughts to paper. Suddenly, I was overwhelmed with the need to perfectly communicate the gratitude and love I could feel welling up inside. These feelings were swirling for days and now they were upon me. We would all be together very soon: The love of my life, our adult children and their new young families. At that moment, I became present to life speeding by. At moment like this, it’s plain to see that these really are the good old days.

Just then, the James Taylor song began to play — “The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time. The secret of love is in opening up your heart.” And just then, I was pierced with the idea.

The welcome toast was not “it”. How could I express the uniquely meaningful thoughts and feelings in a single, generic toast? It was simply not possible. I then felt an urgency to communicate what was in my heart to each person individually — especially in light of my recent health scare.

(BTW, thank goodness I can put that one behind me! There’s nothing like a health scare to unfurl one’s gratitude. Having ruled out a serious illness, I had a new lease on life . Talk about giving thanks!)

And there was not a dry eye in the house. It was a Thanksgiving Day for the ages.

What I typically do to express myself on special occasions is to purchase just the right greeting card at the store. But of course, the stores were closed — and I needed a last minute solution. And not just that, I needed 12 of them!

Just then I remembered! I could login to my eGifter.com account. There I could select, print and hand deliver 12 beautiful greeting cards and gift items. With each greeting card wrapped around a card that would speak to each person’s preferences and pleasures, I could acknowledge each of my ‘special someones’ with a tailored message and handpicked item to express my heartfelt sentiment. The extra touch of love intended for each person uniquely felt so essential for me to express. I knew I was onto something.

And I was right. With eGifter, it took just moments to select a retail brand I knew each person would enjoy. I entered my special love notes and chose photos that were readily accessible and easy to browse and upload. I sped through checkout.

With plenty of time to spare, I printed twelve gift cards. They were folded neatly and adorned the table perfectly at each person’s place setting.

Soon all the guests arrived. Before I ever had a chance to raise my glass for the toast, everyone had already opened and read their hand delivered eGifter gift card. The abundance of love I felt had now been shared.

And there was not a dry eye in the house. It was a Thanksgiving Day for the ages.

The eGifter team is over the moon about the just released television commercial for 2019 made lovingly by our partners at The Gap. Widely acclaimed throughout the advertising industry, this commercial titled “The Hoodie” tugs at the heartstrings of any son (old or young) — and of any mother (same :).

We won’t tell you the ending. But, keep a tissue handy.

The one-minute spot showcases the timeless bond between a single mother and her son as time flows swiftly by, one year following another.  The single constant of this emotionally moving story? The boy’s cotton hoodie, well worn and well loved. No spoilers, though! We won’t tell you the ending. But, keep a tissue handy.

Watch the :60 TV Spot: “The Hoodie”

This heartwarming television commercial lets us know that the fine folks at The Gap are in tuned into their consumer audience, young and old, gifters and “getters”. The Gap has a very clear beat on what makes people tick emotionally around the holidays — putting thoughtfulness and care into their personal relationships. Because everyone knows the best gifts are the ones that are given with meaningful intention, Gap gift cards are the best of the best. Gifting that special someone the great experience of shopping for the *exact* Gap item they really want, within the virtual or brick and mortar walls of this hip and emotionally connected retailer — well, there’s no finer gift around.
