When someone does something nice for you or is just there during a time of need, saying thank you shows your appreciation. But sometimes, saying thank you may not feel like quite enough. Here are 12 ways to say “Thank you” so they know your sentiment is coming straight from your heart.

  • Cook them their favorite meal. Breaking bread together is one of the oldest and most bonding traditions humans know. To show your appreciation to a friend or family member who has gone above and beyond in caring for you, host an evening of fun by serving them their favorite meal. Be sure to bake their favorite dessert as well to top it off right!

 

  • Give them a Visa Gift Card. Surprising them with a Visa Gift Card will tell them exactly how you feel. What makes it even more special is that you can customize the card with a favorite photo of the two of you and text that reads, “Thank you” or other kind words of your choosing. They will be thrilled to be able to spend it at any of the thousands of retailers worldwide.

  • A bouquet of flowers. Nothing brightens up a day or a room like a gorgeous bouquet of flowers. Whether you hand pick them, have them delivered or buy them yourself at the florists, the overall message will be that you are grateful to them for their kindness.

  • A makeup subscription. Make getting ready for the day easier on them with a makeup subscription. You can decide how many months you’d like to have them receive it; they will delight in the variety of makeup and perfumes they’ll get on a monthly basis. And the best part is, most makeup subscriptions are inexpensive, so stretching out the subscription and extending their joy might be well within your budget.

  • Comfort care package. Who doesn’t love self-care? Arming your knight (or dame) in shining amour is super easy with a comfort care package. Create one on your own with a basket filled with a microfiber blanket, eye mask, warm, fuzzy mittens, a neck cushion and if your friend is a wine lover – a hand-picked bottle of wine or bubbly.

  • Portable blue tooth speaker. Now they can take their tunes with them wherever they go! Encourage outdoor fun with a powerful blue tooth speaker. So much better than listening to music through their phone, a speaker like Soundcore Motion Boom will turn any day festive and fun.

  • Fairy garden. Take creative time for yourself to build your helpful friend their very own fairy garden. You’ll find all the pieces you need to make it whimsical and mysterious at dollar and craft stores. Include various miniature plants and place battery operated LED lights along the tiny houses and perimeter of the garden to give it that pixie appeal.

  • Monogrammed bookmark. Is your friend a bibliophile? Instead of giving them another book (because, let’s face it, they probably already have several dozen in their to-be-read pile), give them a monogrammed leather bookmark. Keep their page in style with a soft and elegant bookmark – a great gift for teachers, too.

  • Go to a comedy club. What better way to say thank you than with the gift of laughter? They say that laughter is the best medicine, and it’s also a great way to show appreciation. Plus, when you laugh together, your friendship becomes stronger. If a comedy club isn’t practical or doable, consider renting a funny movie instead. Pop some popcorn, dim the lights, and let the hilarity ensue!

  • Be there for them, too. Connection is one of the awesome things about being human, and if someone held that kindness in their heart for you, look for the opportunity to reciprocate. If they are having a day, ask if they want to talk. If they’d rather stay quiet, letting them know you’re there for them may be all they need to feel better.

  • A hardcover notebook. The beauty of an empty notebook is that it holds endless possibilities. Even if your friend has never tried being creative or self-expressive before, a simple notebook may be all they need to start.

  • A trinket dish. Find a dish with a word imprinted on it that reflects your heart. “Gratitude,” “Thankful,” “Sincere” are all positive reminders they will see every day when they drop their rings and other important baubles onto the dish.

 

Helping others is a kindness that should not go unrecognized. When a friend does something nice for you or helps in a way that lifted your spirits or helped you out of a jam, return the favor by bringing a smile to their face and reminding them just how appreciative you are.
