I have a group that wants to pitch in all together and get a bride-to-be a gc for her bridal shower. Can I enter it as a show if it is above $150?
 
I wouldn't do it as a gift certificate. I would put them in as a guest and have the bride choose products within that amount. That way she doesn't have to call PC and pay direct shipping later.

A group of teachers are all pitching in for a gc for another fellow teacher. Her shower is Thursday. I'm just presenting her with a mock certificate then will put the order in for the "official" one so she can get it at home with catty and all. I don't know when she'll use it, so the gc is the only option. Just wanted to know if I could put it on a show.
 
NM, I figured it out. She's having a regular bridal shower but some of the teachers are giving her a PC gift certificate.

Gotcha. I just tried it on P3 and yes it looks like I can do it that way.
