Gift cards are always some of the most popular gifts. However, if you got one you’d rather exchange you have options.

There are pluses and minuses to all of these sites. You're not going to get all the money the card is worth with any of these sites, but they can often be a great way to score some deals.

Here are a few sites worth checking out:

Plastic Jungle.com is one of the longest running sites. It offers up to 92 percent cash back. You can get even more money if you opt for an Amazon.com gift card instead of cash. You can also buy discounted gift cards on this site as well.

Cardpool.com offers up to 92 percent cash back and free shipping. You can also find discounted gift cards on the site.

Swap a gift.com is another similar site. This place will give you cash for gift cards you don’t want but you have to go to the nearest certified center. There are none in the Austin area but plenty across the state of Texas and in other places across the country. You can also buy discounted gift cards that other people don’t want here.
