One card, good at over 40 local Downtown Schenectady businesses. It never expires, it arrives by email, and the person opening it picks where it gets spent.
The holiday problem is rarely generosity. It is knowing what someone wants. A Downtown Dollars hands that decision back to them.
There is no deadline on the other end. Whoever opens it can spend it this month or next year.
