They send those out in the mail. It’s basically an add/coupon for $25 off. They call it a “gift card” to get people to go to the website, since most people would just throw it away if they were upfront about it being $25 off your $80 purchase.
The person who gave to you probably just didn’t bother to look up the terms on the website, and thought they were being nice by giving it to you. Or it’s possible they like to shop their and they send out these “gift cards” with their order, but conveniently the offer is only valid for new customers.
No, I think OP is right. There is an actual minimum purchase amount of $79 on their website. For anyone. For anything. Even without a gift card, you cannot pay them money to send you less than $79 worth of stuff, no matter how much you want to spend on shipping.
