MENLO PARK, Calif., Feb. 4, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yiftee, the industry-leading provider of eGift Cards for independent merchants, is partnering with more than 600 independent local retailers and restaurants this Sunday to encourage party goers to thank AND help whoever got suckered into hosting the party for Sunday's big game!

Football fans across the nation this weekend will be ingesting mass quantities of hot wings, chips, cheese, subs, burgers, pizza and beer while making a complete mess of hosts' houses. If this will be you, just be cool and help your friend (or even your sister & brother-in-law) by sending a Yiftee to pay for take-out food or in advance. Or, do the right thing on Monday to make up for trashing their house and send them a Yiftee.com eGift Card with a nice note.
 
Otherwise, you may never get invited back, or worse, YOU will be hosting next year's party!
 
A Florida man said, "Last year I got buffalo sauce all over the fancy couch of my girlfriend's boss. Who has a white couch in their TV room?! Whatever, I guess I should have licked my fingers or something... This year, if invited, I will try not to stain the furniture and will send Carlos (her boss) a $50 Yiftee eGiftCard to make up for whatever I screw up."
 
Just be considerate and send your host a eGiftCard from Yiftee.com. Don't mess with karma. Don't!
