Thank you Rose and Omahamom! This thread and site have been very helpful, so I'm just trying to return the favor.
I'm sorry Lorraine. I searched for the disclaimer that we have but I could not find it. It is on a sheet that was produced by our Development Department. If I have luck finding it I will post it. Until then, I'm waiting for it to be emailed to me.
@Lorraine -- here is the wording we use for our disclaimer:
"Please Note: We cannot be responsible for transportation of gifts, anyone going out of business, or typographical errors. Please use all gift certficates as soon as possible, as many do have expiration dates."
This past year, in all of my letters I sent to people/companies that I know they send gift certificates, I put a SASE in with it. I would say about 1/2 used them.
