You can make some sort of basket, like a "winter snuggle basket" with an inexpensive fleece blanket, a mug, and some specialty herbal tea. Or call the same thing a "stress reliever basket." You'd probably have enough left over for a $10 Barnes & Noble card. All of these people have $40 to spend, but it's the thought that counts.
That one is guaranteed to be left in the hotel room. Business travelers don't check luggage, they use carryons and no one is going to use their carryon allowance for a "winter snuggle basket" even if it was just called a "gift basket." How about just a decent pen or phone accessory?
gift card, speciality coffee, charitable donation.. just think generic - you're right, they probably don't need anything, so it's just supposed to be for fun.
But i haven't met an exec yet who doesn't like coffee
Mormons don't drink coffee, tea, or coke, nothing with any caffeine.
Mormons don't drink coffee or tea. They do drink other caffeinated drinks such as Coke, Dr. Pepper, etc. That's a fact and you got it from the horse's mouth.
I've got to admit that, as a Mormon, I am finding this thread quite entertaining. Mormons are not space aliens and shouldn't be any more difficult to shop for than anybody else. Forget about the coffee and tea and you should be fine.
Just a side comment - I recently had the opportunity to see The Book of Mormon at the Kennedy Center, which was written by the creators of South Park. I wasn't quite sure what to expect and knowing South Park, I knew no topic was off limits. What I didn't expect was a message from the CLS in the playbill, not exactly embracing the show, but using the opportunity to say hey, yes, this is funny, but check out the real Book. This attitude intrigued my 24 old son, who has spent time recently reading up on the church and their beliefs (hasn't done that on any other). In fact, if you Google how did the CLS react to the play, there are some pretty interesting articles. I am not one to bash any religion, but I cannot imagine any other religion reacting in a similar manner. Well played.
I'd like to point out that I was first in with the gift card idea.
G fused was first in but, its really a good idea, so G fused gets the credit but I second it. buy a card, done, finish, maybe a steak house like lone star, etc.
