Do you ever send a Thank you note for a gift, flowers, dinner, etc.?

I send thank yous for a dinner party we've attended, flowers, gifts, etc. Anytime someone has gone out of there way, I try to write a little note.

I try to do this as well, but often I am to lazy... my solution is to "gush" thanks upon the person when present or to call. But we all know that a little thank you written down carries so much more value. Report It

Reply:I send thank you notes for kindnesses that are shown to me whether it be a gift, dinner or even a kind word of encouragement.





I always make sure to thank the giver of a tangible gift, even if it's not a major gift. The gratitude shown through a written thank you note can really make the giver feel special. Also, it lets the giver know that you really appreciate the fact that he or she thought about you.





It's also important to send notes to family members or even spouses. Often, people forget to write notes of thanks for gifts given by those closest to them. Thanking your spouse, brother, mom or dad for gifts can mean a lot to them.





While it can seem overwhelming to write thank you notes, it's important to remember that you don't have to write a novel of gratitude. A few lines of appreciation are sufficient.





But probably the best reason to send thank you notes is that you get to give a gift to the person who gave you gift. In this case, you're giving the gift of mail that's not a bill! Anyone would be appreciative of that!
Reply:A little note is always appreciated, I'm ashamed to admit that I even have personalized ones, haha!


I also encourage my children to write notes to classmates, or friends that remember their birthdays or are nice to them
Reply:Always send them when I dont get to see someone who sends you something.
Reply:Yes. Thank you notes are always appreciated. And they're so easy! Just dash off a few lines and you're done.
