For the last 3 months, every Tuesday a friend of mine has babysat DS for 2 hours until DH finished work, so I could go to a class. In return, I was to babysit her son, but she hasn't taken advantage of that as much as I have used her for babysitting. I want to give her something awesome as a thank you, without her it would have been much more difficult to study and achieve my goals.

I could give her and her DH dinner out on the town with included babysitting, a trip to the day spa (but I know she already has a voucher for that and still hasn't used it.). She's a graphic designer, very artsy, interested in a range of things.....any one recieved a faboulous present of late? Oh, budget about 50-100 - as I said, without her I may not have been able to take this class, and it meant a lot to me to be able to do it with having DS. Also, she saved me more than that in babysitting $$$.


Thanks,
Nicci

I think the dinner out on the town with included babysitting would be a great thank you present. I know for me, I would more likely use that than a trip to the spa. To make sure she "redeems" it, maybe ask/give some dates upfront that would work for both of you.

This website has some great slippers (called Bon Bons): www.goodygoodyshoes.com Although I know there is a store in the Valley that carries them b/c I received them as a gift (but I don't know which one).
