5 ways to show gratitude beyond a thank-you note!

Sometimes we want to say a little more than a thank-you note can express, when a friend does a special favor. In those times, use the suggestions below to say I appreciate your love and thoughtfulness (and offering these gestures of gratitude won't break the bank!)

1) Gift certificate for a favorite desert.
     Whether it's a pint of premium sorbet or an exquisite cheesecake pie, it'll be a delight in the life of the person that did you that special favor.

2) Movie tickets for two.
     An inexpensive way to show someone you appreciate their nice deed."Wind down, relax and take a guest on me."

3) Subscription or renewal for their favorite magazine/newspaper.
     There is no better way to say "thank-you!" A.M. home delivery of the newspaper...what a great way to start the day!

4) Pen and pencil holder for the desk.
     Give a holder with a motivational quote and it will encourage, your friend, during the work day!

5) Colorful oven mitt or pot holder.
     Although you may not know the color scheme of the kitchen, you can't go wrong by giving a bright, neon-colored oven mitt or pot holder. Thank and uplift the cook, all at the same time!

 Going above and beyond a thank-you note, to say "I appreciate your kindness", doesn't have to hurt your pockets!
