re: Which lower should I pick?

Aero sells an stripped lower that helps with a few of the annoying parts of assembly such as replacing the bolt catch roll pin with a screw, safety selector spring and detent is held in with a set screw instead of trapping it between the lower and back plate, and the integrated oversized trigger guard.
I have a standard one because it was available at the time at my gun shop and I'm impatient. But would have paid the little extra for it. Unless you are looking for full ambidextrous, most all lowers will serve your purpose.

I really like aero precision, but will say you better buy through a third party site that has it in stock and not directly from them. I purchased a scope mount the beginning of December that was not listed as backorder and it still hasn't showed up. After waiting 5 hours in queue with customer service they inform me it will not ship until probably the beginning of March

When you say gift cards. Do you mean Visa/MC type? I'm not sure where you live but my favorite online store to order gun parts is Primary Arms. I've been using them since the late 2000s when I worked 20 min away from their store. When they have sales I have stocked up on stripped lowers, lpks. ect.

I have some store exclusive gift cards.
They have Aero parts on the shelf.
Should I go with those and get another trigger or just build out with the Aero parts?

If the price is right you could get a good bit of parts for the price of the lowers you first asked about. Make a list of what lower parts this company has with a prices. Let us know what's available. I don't mind Aero parts. They are a good company and not that expensive. I do love their scope mounts. Great product for less than $100

I'm about to stick a pile of Bravo parts in an Anderson lower.
My little bit of research leads me to think that a good trigger is the main thing separating Gucci lowers from poor kid lowers. Going to find out soon enough.

I have one aero trigger and it really surprised me that it was quite crisp and only like 4 ish lbs.
I’m a snob when it comes to triggers so I replaced with triggertech.
But lowers only have a few parts. 2 pins, a safety, mag release and bolt catch.
You can get ambi lowers like radian and they have more but still not much

A lower is a lower. If they're dimensionally correct and have decent anodization an Anderson lower is going to function just like a DD lower.
If you're interested in anything beyond battlefield accuracy a good trigger is a must, and by "good" I don't mean a mil-spec trigger with polished surfaces. You just can't do much with the existing geometry to make it good.

A lower is just a box that you put the good stuff in. As long as it is to spec and it all lines up, the lower doesn’t matter.

another vote for Aero lower. that was my first build. I cheaped out on subsequent builds but it made things go really smoothly for a first timer.

If you plan to get an after market trigger. Look into a lpk without the trigger. THat will save you a little bit of money
