If you send someone a thank-you gift, should you
expect an acknowledgment of said gift? This is the second time we have sent a gift card to someone as a thank you, and neither of them have even called to say they got it! I don't expect a thank you for the thank you gift, but at least let me know if you received it. Sheesh!

Hey yourself! I'm trying to ease myself back into OH. LOL. I"ve been so swamped in the last 6 months or so! Sooooooooooo, I hear on the board that you have a new beau?? Congrats!
You know, I expected a call at least from the two FAMILY members that I sent a gift card to. both are nieces - one on my side and one on my hubby's side. I know they were brought up better than this, that's what makes me sad...

#Acknowledge a gift when the sender has no other way of knowing you received it. This might even involve sending a thank-you note for a thank-you gift.

Recently, I rescued my elderly uncle and aunt who where in my city on business that ran late
and they got lost trying to get out of the city after dark. They called me and I
met them and led them back to my house, gave them food and insisted that
they stay overnight.
Next morning, I made them breakfast showed them a
few sites and led them about 15 miles out of the city to make sure they didn't
get lost again. They thanked me and offered to pay me, I refused of course. I
really had to alter my schedule a lot to do this, unexpectedly. But I didn't mind.
2 days later I received the most beautiful hand made thank you card (from my aunt) itemizing the stay, the food, and the hospitality one by one. She said something to the effect that we really knew how to show two old people a good time.
This made the inconvenience worth while. Of course, they are in their 70's so they have old school manners. So, long story short, YES, people should acknowledge even a thank
you.
