Gift cards to theaters spike in December

We have discussed many times that Gift Card giving spikes in December, what we have not dug into is which verticals benefit the most from the gift card spike. Movie gift cards are a huge recipient of the increase in giving.

Movie gift cards can be divided into a number of different catagories. Movie Gift cards to theaters are traditional and a sure hit. We all know that theater prices are ridiculous these days so giving a gift card to someone to see a movie has become a very nice gesture. You are saying 'here, take the time and money to relax and be entertained.

Movie gift cards can also come in the form of gift cards to stores that sell DVDs and Blue Rays. We all know movie collectors and in this economy it is hard to justify spending money on DVDs. Gift a movie gift card and let the collector you know grow his or her dvd collection.

The latest and maybe coolest way to give a movie gift card is via the iTunes store. You can give an iTunes gift card and this is a gift card for a movie!
