I noticed, and thought I'd misread it - but I was reading the actual store opening times. It's only today that I checked and realised that my first thought was right and they're ripping the kids off.
The fact is, if those kids want to go up to the register, they have to spend an extra $30 on a t-shirt, plus those giftcards (and I bet you don't get change from a giftcard, so that you have to spend the whole thing, but because the shirts are around $30, you have to put in an extra $10 to get two and use it all up instead of losing $20).
