I personally don't like receiving "stuff", so anything to eat or consume like fun snacks, a fruit basket, restaurant gift card, or something like fancy hand soaps would be nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835757 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 12:57:40 +0000 erinbaderin 2835757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe a gift card to a local restaurant - you could include a note about “thanks for taking such great care of us, now we’re going to take care of you for dinner!” </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835749 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 12:24:22 +0000 castilrm 2835749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: no problem! I also like to cook and/or going to eat so I’ve made a meal when visiting or taken hosts out to dinner. I usually stick to food/beverage gifts :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835735 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 11:24:07 +0000 Mamaof2 2835735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@castilrm: oops sorry, no alcohol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835710 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:41:47 +0000 MrsDynamiteGal 2835710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Whenever we have family come out of state to visit us they bring food or other gifts. One year they brought us local maple syrup and a pancake kit. Other time it was specialty bread. Or homemade crafts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835707 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:24:50 +0000 looch 2835707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would like stuff I can use and then be done with, so I wouldn't necessarily like a landmark trinket, but I would love a consumable like nuts, honey, soap, etc. That would all be wonderful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835704 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:18:36 +0000 MrsDynamiteGal 2835704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: I love the idea of a local gift! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835698 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:07:18 +0000 castilrm 2835698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If they drink wine, that’s often my thank you gift. I live near a popular wine producing region so I usually bring it with me if I know there is a vineyard they like or if I’m traveling somewhere that has their own regional wine or beer areas, I pick up wine or beer for them while out and about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835689 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 09:53:59 +0000 Mamaof2 2835689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: yeah i wanted to do local chocolate but figured it would melt.</p> <p>Local soap I think they would like! And nuts wont melt!</p> <p>Thanks for the ideas! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835687 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 09:51:26 +0000 crazydoglady 2835687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Hmmm...I would probably avoid a trinket that they feel they have to display. What about something like local olive oil (maybe not that exactly since you are flying,) locally made soaps, regional nuts etc? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-idea-1#post-2835684 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 09:32:33 +0000 Mamaof2 2835684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are heading out west to see and stay with my BIL and SIL for a week - We are flying and then have a 3 hours drive to get there.</p> <p>Would love to leave a little gift behind when we leave.</p> <p>What would you bring?</p> <p>*I asked this on my local FB page as well and lots of people suggested something from a local landmark here - thoughts on that? </p>
