Do you think its offensive or appropriate to give cash or gift cards ?
I think this used to be frowned upon in the past citing lack of personal involvement and effort, but I think its becoming more acceptable these days. Especially with gamers. What do you think?

I think it means more if someone has taken the trouble to buy you a present, but I know young people prefer to have money to buy what they really want.

I think it's perfectly fine, like you say it used to be frowned upon, but these days I think it's the safest way to go.
