What the petition asks
Many stores sell you gift cards but refuse their customers to purchase their 'gifts' as they have a fixed expiry date. Companies have had their money, but they want their 'cake and eat it'. How is this fair? Or even legal? It used to be called stealing to take something that doesn't belong to you.
