Question about a gift for a friend

I'm meeting a friend tomorrow for lunch. We haven't seen each other in a while just because of being busy (one of those great friendships that we don't talk that often, but pick right up where we left off and are close).
In any case, her birthday is next week and she is also in the process of a divorceChat Icon I'd like to get her a lgift - combo - bday and you deserve it - any ideas? I'd even love to get her a massage or something at a spa but I think she'd kill me - she will anyway.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi Michal!

What about tickets to something the two of you can do together? I think the massage or some sort of pampering thing would be perfect for her right about now.

What about a gift card to a store you know she shops at, a card telling her that she deserves to buy something for herself & that you're there for her, and then pay for lunch?

Not very original, I know. Chat Icon

No, it's "not" not original - holy double negativeChat Icon - just not sure what to get her - that's a good idea - was thinking of paying for lunch as a birthday lunch anyway - just trying to think of stores where she shops and stuff - I know she likes Macy's but there's no way I'm going to the mall tomorrow morningChat Icon

Does she have any foods that she likes? My Mom loves pignoli (sp) cookies, so once in a while I would stop in to Dortoni's in Levittown and get a box for her. Chat Icon

Awww Miki you're so sweet but you don't have to get me anything! Chat Icon


I do like the mani/pedi gc idea because it is a way to treat yourself. Tickets to a comedy club or something like that would be good too. Makeup is always nice so maybe a gc to Sephora....

I'll see if I can come up with something a litte less unoriginal too...

I like this idea. The things you could do together gift. When my bf got divorced, I know she needed something to fill the void at night.
