Hand me down clothes - advice
My girlfriend just gave me bags and bags of clothes in varying sizes for LO. She has three and is done having babies, so she also gave me a playmat, shopping cart cover, and various other items.
What is an appropriate gift/amount to give her to show her how much I appreciate this gesture. She already told me she doesn't want anything in return, but I can't do that.
Thanks!

Hand me down clothes - advice
I have a friend like this she wants to get rid of the items she no longer needs and wld rather give to someone she knows will DEF use. I try to re-pay her with baking her favorite cookies when I visit her or I invite her over for lunch or dinner. Sometimes I bring over something lil for our girls. My friend does not expect anything in return but doing something lil here and there just shows how much I appreciate her.
or you could just buy her a bottle of her favorite wine...:)

I like the wine idea. My friends would never take a monetary gift, honestly they are just happy to get the crap out of the house lol!

I'd feel very weird about accepting a Thank You 'gft'
Honestly, I consider my friend doing ME a favor as much as I'm doing HER a favor. She's helping me clean out my house !!
Most of my boys' stuff is in 'like new' condition and I LOVE to see it go to someone who wants/needs it rather than randomly to Goodwill, or worse, just on the curb !!
