In Brooklyn:
Eichlers (Coney Island) $25 Gift Card .. long line here
Sushi Tokyo (Coney Island) $25 Gift Card .. shorter line but all Amex users
Liquors Galore on Ave J $25 Gift Card .. no line.
Tea for Two (Nostrand Ave) .. took the wife out and only paid 20 out of pocket and had leftovers to bring home
The top 3 location are all within 30 seconds from each other.
All Gift Cards were actual plastic cards and not flimsy receipt credits. I received the emails for all the cards within 2 minutes of swiping them.
All in all had a great night
