Best place to exchange upscale restaurant card?
I have a $50 gift card to The Grill on The Alley which - for those who still never knew - is a landmark Beverly Hills upscale restaurant that now also has 3 other locations (Hollywood, San Jose, Westlake Village) a Miami area (Aventura) location and one each in Chicago and Dallas. I am interested in listing it to exchange for same or lesser value for something everyday like Target, Borders or a gas or drugstore gift card. Where's the most effective no-hassle place to do that? Thanks for any suggestions.

I looked on a card exchange website (cardavenue.com), and all of the restaurant listings seemed to be for national chains.
A local website (including your local Cragislist page, as suggested by BLI-Flyer) might not be a bad idea.

Thanks. It does have more than one location so I was thinking either Craigslists or eBay. I wonder if eBay isn't a better bet even with the 25cents listing fee to a national audience versus a local Craiglists listing that's free but depends on them having Paypal or picking up. Although I'm having a yard sale next weekend so actually that could be plan B too for having them pick up.
