Note on Payment Verification: When you enter a payment method at the time of order, the name and card number you enter should exactly match the information on the card you are using, including spaces and stops for initials. Then, when you are asked to verify the payment method used for the printable gift certificate, the name and card number must exactly match the information you entered at the time of purchase (which should also exactly match the information on the physical card). If you enter variations of the name anywhere during the process, you may encounter problems verifying your payment and printing your gift certificate.
You can print your gift certificate as many times as needed, but the code it contains can only be redeemed once.

I'm having trouble using my gift certificate to place an order. What is happening?
Are you receiving an error message that says the gift certificate has already been redeemed? Once you've entered the claim code on our site, we'll keep the balance in your account for use on future purchases.
If this isn't the problem, check the Terms and Conditions to make sure your order meets the rules and restrictions for paying with a gift certificate.

What happens to the rest of my gift certificate if I don't use it all at once?
Once you've entered the claim code on our site, we'll keep the balance in your account for use on future purchases, but you will need to enter the claim code again when you place your next order. Please be aware that the original expiration date applies to any unused funds.
When you place your next order, make sure the box on the order form is checked that says "Apply gift certificate or promo funds?" If your order total is more than your gift certificate funds, you'll need to pay for the rest with a payment card.
You should see the gift certificate funds reflected in the cost summary. If the funds don't show up there and your gift certificate hasn't expired, please contact us.
