FYI: Before the holidays, I got a really cute travel mug in the dollar bins in Michael's for five bucks. I get a lot of compliments on the print @ work.

If they are taking the LIRR, one of those plastic ticket holders and perhaps ear plugs for the ride Chat Icon

I got this coach photo holder for my train pass and work id. They have it in other colors too (black is one). I've seen them on eBay for $20, but there aren't any right now...but maybe if the coach outlet has a sale...

Re: Need Gift Ideas...New Job in NYC

Depending on what train station she's going from, some you have to pay for daily parking (some stations have daily scratch off tickets). Maybe a pack of those to start?
