I bought her a 50$ GC to a new restaurant so she and her hubby can go on a date night. It might be nice to do something similar for your co-worker and then she and her daughter can go for a nice lunch together either before or after baby arrives. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-borrowing-baby-items#post-754738 Wed, 01 May 2013 13:31:55 +0000 2PeasinaPod 754738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How about a gift card to a take out place for her daughter so that once baby arrives, she doesn't have to cook? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-borrowing-baby-items#post-754726 Wed, 01 May 2013 13:29:08 +0000 heffalump 754726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just made my neighbor a pie because she brought me her granddaughter's hand me downs. I'm too broke to spend money.... but I think a gift card is nice :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-borrowing-baby-items#post-754689 Wed, 01 May 2013 13:08:16 +0000 Freckles 754689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: @Foodnerd81: @MungBean: It was very nice of her! So i'm guessing it won't be weird if i each get them gift certificates? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-borrowing-baby-items#post-754658 Wed, 01 May 2013 12:49:53 +0000 pinkcupcake 754658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that's very nice and thoughtful of you! I think somewhere around $40-50... Gift cards are always appreciated! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-borrowing-baby-items#post-754626 Wed, 01 May 2013 12:32:49 +0000 Foodnerd81 754626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: has good ideas. That's really nice of you to give them a little something. Even a starbucks or dunkin donuts card would be nice.</p> <p>I've been wondering the same thing about my friend who loaned me her maternity clothes and is going to loan me some baby stuff. I like the restaurant gc idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-borrowing-baby-items#post-754591 Wed, 01 May 2013 12:11:46 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 754591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That was very nice of her. I would give her a thank you card and include a restaurant GF $20-30. For her new grandbaby a new bassinet sheet or two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-borrowing-baby-items#post-754557 Wed, 01 May 2013 11:57:46 +0000 Freckles 754557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My coworker loaned me a number of items her granddaughter no longer needed -- bassinet, bath tub, bouncer, jumperoo and 3 jumbo packages of diapers. Some of the items were things she bought for her home (when her daughter and granddaughter came over) and others were her daughter's.</p> <p>Her daughter is pregnant again, and i'll be giving her things back soon. I would like to give a thank you gift, which i think should be for both my coworker and her daughter. </p> <p>Any gift ideas? How much would you spend? </p>
