It's not like they had to clean their house in order to host it there. Or (most likely) pay for the refreshments and decorations. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-shower-thank-you-gifts#post-1705414 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:44:52 +0000 hotchildinthecity 1705414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, just a note is fine!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-shower-thank-you-gifts#post-1705385 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:34:15 +0000 avivoca 1705385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave thank you notes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-shower-thank-you-gifts#post-1705365 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:29:17 +0000 Smurfette 1705365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave thank you notes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-shower-thank-you-gifts#post-1705361 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:27:28 +0000 lawbee11 1705361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave my work shower hostesses thank you cards and that's it. I've hosted showers before and didn't expect anything (though a thank you card is always nice!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-shower-thank-you-gifts#post-1705355 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:26:14 +0000 Adira 1705355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooops... I didn't get my coworkers anything when they threw my surprise shower... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-shower-thank-you-gifts#post-1705352 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:25:18 +0000 raspberries 1705352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've hosted work showers before for coworkers, and I'll speak on behalf of your secretaries when I say a thank-you gift is totally not necessary. Just a hand-written thank-you note would be appropriate.</p> <p>If you really really really want to get them something, go with something small that they can carry home from work with them - chocolates, wine, etc. One person got me a specialized kind of tea since I looove tea, so something like that would be appropriate too, if you know their tastes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-shower-thank-you-gifts#post-1705301 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:06:34 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 1705301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What did you get the person/people who hosted your work shower? I had three secretaries host a shower at my office and I'm not sure what to get them. It was a great shower and I'm really appreciative of the work they put into it. FYI one is my current secretary, one is my former secretary and one is a secretary I work a lot with. Thanks! </p>
