Let the gift tracker know you will also need as much contact information as possible and have them at the very least, record the guests current address. That way afterwards you have a clear record regarding your guests and their gift choices.

Step Two; after the particular event, secure your guest-gift list from the person you assigned in step-one. Locate all of the items and gather them into one place such as the kitchen table or if there are a large number, use an open space such as living room or family room. Next, take the time to personally review each item and make positive notes about the item. Focus on the positive and offer such things as how it will be used, what you like about it and what positive affect it may have on you.

Step Three; obtain a set of Thank-You cards that have a nice design related to the particular event or something related to your personality. With the list and personal notes about the various items, hand-write each individual a “Thank-You”. Refer to your notes and focus on the positive. Once finished, hand sign each one for that personal touch.

Step Four; Mail the notes as soon as possible using the guests contact information. DO NOT PUT THIS OFF! If some guest information was poorly recorded, make every effort to locate that guests address. Do not over-look them or think you’ll get around to having an acquaintance or relative hand deliver the note. This is poor etiquette and reflects a lack of thought.

Step Five; enjoy the gift they provided you. Even if you do not like making potpourri or crocheted doilies for your couch arms, appreciate the thought and enjoy the fact that they took the time to think about you. However, if the gift was a 72“ Plasma TV enjoy it every day.
