Rebate gift cards suck. What I usually do with gift cards is go and buy a gift card for an online store that I frequently go to (for example Amazon) for the exact amount of the rebate gift card. That way you don't lose out on the $1-$2 that's usually left behind after you spend most of the balance. (since not all stores will allow you to do multiple forms of payment like $2 on the gift card and the balance as cash or cc) You can usually do multiple forms of payment if you use a gift card on a purchase though. (i.e. GC for $20 and the CC for the rest)

I'm not sure if you can do the same in store at a store though. I've never tried.
