	GiveReal.com - send a bar tab to your friend The site allows friends to send each other what amounts to a drink tab up to $99 from any restaurant or bar, using credits that can be tied to their credit cards... gift giving process for Give Real is a bit complicated, perhaps to a fault. If I want to give my friend a $20 bar tab for his birthday, I first enter my credit card information into Give Real’s payment system, which immediately charges my account. My friend receives a notification alerting him that I’ve given him the gift, but in order to collect it he has to tie his own credit card to Give Real’s system.

	it's a great idea, awful name, and i'm not sure it's that easy to get into enough restaurants and bars, plus it sounds like a hassle. really neat idea though, i'd actually use this, but sadly, FAIL. [QUOTE]

	This is as silly as the "gift cards" you can "purchase" at ATMs. Bad idea. Don't see the point. [QUOTE]
