I don't get the whole concept.
I hand you a $100 bill/gift card and you hand me a $100 bill/gift card and we both say "Merry Christmas" and we've somehow accomplished something?
The idea is that you'll use it for something special for yourself that you wouldn't have spent your own money on.
Say I'm a tightwad who won't buy anything for myself. I gave you $100 because you're a friend and I want you to do whatever you want with it. You gave me $100 with the same understanding. Since this isn't $100 of my own money, I splurge on something exotic, and enjoy it guilt-free.
That's the idea.
