Bus Driver Gift

What about a travel cup to keep him warm when driving the bus with a DD gift card in it? Just an idea instead of money :)

Re: Bus Driver Gift

My DH is an overgiver.
With everything.
An over tipper.
An over gifter.

You WANT to invite him to your party, trust me- he ALWAYS overgifts. He has this thing about not wanting to look "cheap" ever.

If you are having a party, I'll send you his name and address..

$10 gift card. I refuse to give more. I’m sorry, but my mom never tipped my school bus drivers growing up, and I think anything given is generous. Whether that is cookies, or any other kind of gift.

Having worked in schools and I only speak for myself, I expected nothing. I personally feel the gifting is out of hand.



I agree gifting is out of hand!!! I am only doing $10 also for both the bus driver and the assistant or whatever they are called. Its just too many people.

MY DH told me I am being ridiculous that we never gifted all these people when growing up!!

Are we married to the same man? You would think his last name is Bezos with the way he gives.

To answer your question, I give her $20 cash. I should probably give more because we love her so much but I"m at max capacity this time of year.

I think my mom did (in the 80s)- at least some chocolate or something. But like Nell's DH, she was the weird over gifter that didn't want to look cheap.
