We are gifting several gift cards this year, and I would like to wrap them instead of putting them in a card. I know they sell cute boxes at the store but I don't want to spend that much on just a box. Any ideas?

My mom loves to wrap them in regular random sized boxes with random stuff inside to make the weight weird. One year I spent fully a month trying to figure out what my present was - when you tipped it one way it made a rolling noise and the other way it made a slide/thunk sound. I called it the rollythunky present and it made me crazy. It was a gift card and a can of mushroom soup.

They have cute tins at the dollar store for $1 here! Or little boxes also for $1.
Maybe a little gift bag?

I got some cute boxes from the Dollar Spot at Target. Or sometimes I wrap in tissue and then put in the little goodie/treat bags that are like 20 for a couple bucks at Target.

You can google origami gift card box and find a bunch of answers. I usually cut wrapping paper to size because I'm too cheap to buy origami paper. It's not even expensive, I'm just lazy.
Or I'll wrap them up in a couple pieces of tissue by placing the card in the center, gathering the corners of the tissue all together in the center and wrapping a ribbon around it. Hopefully these instructions make sense??
