Can you please cite your sources. I don’t think it is legal, but I’m having trouble finding a law on it.
A gift card is not the same as a gift. It does not seem logical nor legal to be charged sales tax on the purchase of a gift certificate when the person who uses the gift certificate will also be charged tax.
