Thursday is the last day the cards can be exchanged for Bed Bath & Beyond credit. About 64 cents on the dollar is being paid in the form of a Bed Bath & Beyond or buybuy BABY gift card.

Bed Bath & Beyond hadn’t returned an email message from FOX Business at the time of publication requesting comment on why it pays different amounts.
