I thought most gift "certificates" nowadays were gift cards which don't really look any different than credit cards. (i.e. unless she was being nebby she couldn't tell)

This really depends on what kind of restaurant it is. If it was someplace nice, I don't think there's anything wrong with it - however, if you're at Long John Silver's and using the coupons from the Sunday paper that's a little different. We have those entertainment books here and I know some people are really anal about not going ANYWHERE that doesn't have a coupon attached. Also, did he say "is so and so restaurant OK" or just go there? I mean, if you like (example) Morton's Steakhouse anyway, who cares how they pay for it? But if he made her go somewhere she didn't like that's bad, GC or no GC.

Personally, I'd be more bugged by the 45 minutes late than the gift certificate.
