Shop the Gap family for me?

I have a $50 gift card that I've been trying to use for at least a year now, but I've always returned the things I bought. I can't bring myself to regift it because technically it has $49.99 on it and that is just weird to give to someone.

I feel like there should be something I'm missing... has anything caught your eye? I am willing to go over the $50 for something awesome and "me." The card can be used at Gap, ON, BR, Athleta, and Piperlime. o_0

I just traded my plaid blazer for this, which I LOVE and am bringing to Sundance:

Oh, I see it's sold out online. It's in my stores though...

Honestly, as someone who can find something to buy anytime, anywhere and someone who also loves the Gap and BR - I have not found anything remotely appealing at those stores lately. It all seems so basic and I have plenty of basics. Which is good because I'm supposed to be on SYC. Piperlime may have possibilities - there is a ton of inventory to go through. I've been looking at these boots - on sale for $89 and 15% off.

This seems to be sold out on the US site, but maybe it's in stores. I have it in vermillion and I LOVE it. It has a subtle high-low hem and drapes really nicely.

Love that military jacket but sold out..if you really won't use it, you could give to a friend or buy something and donate it. There are a lot of charities looking for clothes/ gifts for teens. That age group is terribly under gifted at Christmas time. Everyone buys for 5-8 year olds..just a thought

I love that jacket Anna found. A's suggestion is also great.

I think Una has this sweater and maybe, if this is the right one, she could comment on how it has worn/pilled/etc. but I am smitten with the color and I think it has some citron tones in it

plus today is 15% off everything Piperlime.

Oh ... piperlime sounds good!

I have been pleased with these basic tees from Gap Pure. Mine are comparable to my Vince tees.

I think you can add money to the balance of the gift card. If all else fails, see if you can pay the penny, round it up and share the love!

How about this clutch/wallet:

I think there's a 15% off site-wide promotion going on these days.

Ooh, I forgot about the citron sweater, and I didn't realize Piperlime was on sale!

Hrm, after poking around Piperlime I spotted these rust skinnies...

Stock up on jeans? My size hasn't fluctuated in years, and they still make the style I like, so there's no reason not to put one aside. ( I know it's hard to use fun money on basics, but ... )

Or try a different sized (or different shaped) bag? I've noticed you've got a lovely collection of medium-to-large crossbody unstructured bags -- what about a daytime clutch (that can convert to a crossbody)?

I'm kinda drooling over the texture on this: http://piperlime.gap.com/brows.....=580528002, but the colors on this one might make it more flexible: http://piperlime.gap.com/brows.....=392020002
