In the past when I was just learning how to handle these online GCs, I did but not anymore. I have a friend who still does it, she says she's O-C that way I have just deviced means and ways to minimize, if not totally avoid loss, by doing once a week recycling.

we still have to keep in mind that even if we have card info and don't realize it's lost and whoever found the card has already drained it, I'm not sure if the issuer will replace it especially if used within same zipcode we're in. It will be up to the person who lost it to prove they were not the ones who used the card; maybe they'll be required to file a police report but IDK if that is enough for the issuer to replace the funds. IOW, we really have to be very, very careful with these GCs and treat them like cash.
