River Island gift card

My grandson tells me he would like a River Island gift card as part of his Christmas present. I thought I'd be able to pick one up in Morrison's as I have with New Look etc, but when I enquired, apparently you can only get them from River Island itself and I don't have one anywhere near me. There isn't time to get one posted now as I need it for the weekend.
As an alternative, I thought about those general high street gift cards that you can use in a range of shops, including River Island. For example Love-to-Shop. I'm a bit worried that when he goes shopping he won't be able to use it or I will have bought the wrong card. There seem to be a few of these general card companies around, can anyone recommend a reliable, well known one that he can use at River Island?
Thanks

If you want to buy a general voucher card, maybe try going to their website to see what stores accept their card. Love-to-Shop will have a list of stores included and if River Island are not on the list then they wont be included.
You also have until Saturday to order anything if it is delivered first class for it to arrive by Christmas, some stores will let you order the day before for a 1 day delivery and I think one or two stores will even let you order by mid day for delivery instore (click and collect) by the end of the working day. Today (end of) is the last day for second class postage to arrive by Christmas.0 -
