			OK so it costs $12 to get $50 in gift cards, rather than $2.
 Still a good deal!

 |  I agree, it's still a good deal, but only if you go to starbucks often, or plan on shopping at Target in the future. Unfortunately neither applies to me.  
I just meant that there's more to it than meets the eye...
