If you have gift cards laying around that you have not used, it would not be wise to let them sit much longer. States are looking to collect this unclaimed money and retailers, who once had the opportunity to claim these unused gift cards as income, may lose this priviledge soon. Here is a site where shoppers can sell their unused gift cards. http://unusedgiftcards.com/gc/unusedgiftcards.php
