S/o from Jane's post: Gift giving question

Who all do you give a Christmas gift to other than friends and family? For example, hair stylist, mail carrier, childcare provider, etc? Also, what types of gifts do you give?

Re: S/o from Jane's post: Gift giving question

  • We've always given to the mail carrier, in the beginning it was fresh baked cookies, candies and such but we've started doing a $25 Visa or AMEX gift card... this year we are adding the sanitation guys, they do such a good job for us throughout the year. When we aren't creating "art" in the yard, we have a lot of clippings throughout the year and they don't even leave so much as a leaf. When I visited my hairdresser regularly, and I haven't now in years,  I'd leave an extra good tip plus a small gift.

     

  • I think I am going to give our hair stylist a funky Auburn bracelet from this shop downtown called auburnart.com. They had several different ones, and I actually bought a few for other people as well. I just hope they still have some. They were 25% off this past weekend. DS is getting a cut tomorrow afternoon.

    For DS's primary caregiver at school, we are doing a $25 gift card to Niffers (her fave restaurant) and a tin of homemade cookies. All the other teachers will get a picture card and a tin of cookies.

  • i am doing little buckets of my hand dipped white chocolate pretzels for our mail carrier and trash pickup folks... :)

    yum,

  • Here at the office, we give gifts to the mail carriers, garbage man, guy from the city who picks up the trash on the streets, and the water lady.  LOL - I don't know their names because I never see them - FIL does.  We usually give them gift cards to Wal-Mart.

  • We gave a small box of chocolates and $25 extra to our housekeeper who comes twice a month.

     I think I'm going to make some cookies to bring to my hairdresser next week.
