IMPORTANT CONSUMER WARNING:

Myrtle Beach Real Estate by Mirela Monte: Real Estate Brokerage in Myrtle Beach, SC

Gift cards have been around for a long time and many of us like giving them as gifts, especially around the holidays. BE CAREFUL with it this year! Many stores will be closing in 2009 and your gifts may become WORTHLESS pieces of plastic.

A technique called "Bankruptcy Planning" incorporates the selling of gift cards as a strategic business move for companies that are having financial issues. They sell the gift cards, yet later on, many of them will not honor the very gift cards they sold mere weeks prior.

It is all perfectly legal and the consumer has no recourse. The following stores MAY present this problem with their gift cards:

Foreclosure King Odell Barnes Knows The Best Thing for Distressed Neighborhoods

Bobby  Wallace: Real Estate - Other in Charleston, SC

The last time that Odell Barnes was interviewed he had over 400 would-be homeowners from all over the United States send hime their contact info in hopes that he would finance a home for them.

When "Nightline" first met Odell Barnes, the man known to some as the Foreclosure King, he was on his cell phone constantly, buying foreclosed homes by the dozens from his front porch in South Carolina. (ABC News)A year later, he's still answering the phone, but he's off his porch and in Detroit.

"It's too big for me," he said of the current housing crisis. "One thousand houses a week? It outgrows you." Sitting on another front porch - this time at a burned-out house in Detroit - Barnes has plunged face first into the nation's housing crisis. He's always bought houses in bulk from banks, but what's changed is that, in the last year, mortgage insurer Fannie Mae has begun dumping foreclosed houses on him. The original owners are gone and Fannie Mae and the banks can't sell any other way.
