   Yes, in class action suits it's generally only the lawyers that   
   get rich from it..

   Yes, I get offers all the time with gift cards and such if you   
   take a new credit card or something, but I pretty much always   
   find that where you can spend that money is either not any place   
   I'd ever shop in or there isn't a branch within 75 miles of here.   
      
   So often 'deals' like that are based on things like Travel or   
   specialty stores with overpriced products..
