We must put expiration dates on our gift certificates to limit our liability and to avoid problems with state unclaimed property laws.
But we try to be very generous with expiration dates. Normally our holiday gift certificates expire the end of Apirl, giving you several months and at least two major holidays to redeem your certificate. Those issued at other times of the year normally expire on December 31, allowing you more time and several holidays when you can redeem it.
Turkey, ham, and beef steaks are a wonderful treat for any occasion. Frozen product can be purchased during the holidays or at other times when they are on special and held frozen for months. So don’t put off using your gift certificates — Be sure to redeem them before they expire.
Special note:
Several states have laws restricting the use of expiration dates on gift certificates. However, most exclude gift certificates like ours that are accepted at multiple retailers (as opposed to retailer gift cards which are good only at that store). Others also exclude gift certificates you redeem for food products. If you have a question about the laws in your state give us a call.
