It is the thought that matters. I would be happy with a card that just says your the best dad I love you. I told our kids not to spend much all we wanted was them over for christmas.

$100 card from my parents. Before buying it, they called the dealer manager to make sure I could apply the gift card to my outstanding winter balance. ($3600 so far and climbing) Does anyone else who got a gift card for $100 suddenly consider getting something for, oh say, $800? Like Wild Ones bars plus labor for install w/internal wiring and braided lines? That $100 could go a long way toward something like that?

What's wrong with us?

It sounds like you should have stopped talking after "thank you".

My daughter gave me a gift card for Christmas. She struggles to make ends meet and was only able to afford one for $30. When I jokingly told her what HD stood for she was upset and said they shouldn't sell any gift cards less than $100 if that is the case. But it's all good. I can put it together with the ones I got from others and I will be fine. T.
Proud you should be, Her gift is worth more then you know. I think the meaning of Christmas has been lost. Thank her for me for reminding us all of it
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Its the thought she gave you something towards you really like.

She could have gotten you a new tie or socks, not saying that would be a bad gift.

Its not the value of the gift but the thought that goes into one. You have a great daughter.
