Best buy does not allow you to redeem the gift cards for cash, but I sold
mine to someone who was planning on purchasing in the store.  Might want to
try that..

Understood. 
You get most of the features of the 60csx (wonderful GPS - I love mine!)
with the Etrex Vista HCX

&s=electronics&qid=1232793957&sr=8-1

Line for line the two compare favorably, with the battery life on the vista
a bit longer.

I have a Vista cx as well. I love that as well, except for the patch
antenna. The Hcx fixes that. And it is about $100 bucks cheaper than the
60Csx.

But, I don't think that Best Buy (at least from their website) carries the
Vista. So....
