When to give a thank you card

Two weeks ago when we had that bad snowstorm DH went and helped two neighbors snowblow their driveways.  One neighbor gave us a plate of baked cookies and the other gave us some chocolates and a candle to thank DH for his help.  So now do I need to give them a thank you card?  I called the one neighbor and thanked them again for the cookies and of course thanked the other neighbor when she brought over the gift last night.

Re: When to give a thank you card

  • I dont feel like it is necessary to give a thank you card, for a thank you gift you received, as long as you acknowledged the gift you were given with the giver. which sounds like you did :)

    the rule is, you don't give a thank you for a thank you. Big Smile your voiced thanks is plenty.

  • I think a verbal thank you is just fine in this case.  Otherwise it could be a never ending string of thank yous!  Thank you for the thank you for the thank you...  :-)

    I love nice neighbors.  DH helped snowblow our neighbor's driveway and they trudged over in the snow later on with a warm loaf of bread!!

  • I think you're fine with the verbal thank you, too. 

    I love nice neighbors as well!  Our neighbor snowblowed our driveway a couple times in that last snowstorm.  I could have cried I was so happy.  He got a 6 pack of home brewed beer.
