I want to send a thank you to a local government official. getting flowers delivered is like minimum $50 these days so fuck that. something like a gift card might be inappropriate for a government employee to accept.
any ideas?
Again I don’t know about your local rules or what’s available but since you were considering flowers and decided against them because of the price, my suggestion would be a nice thank you card and maybe a small tiny cheap succulent plant. They are hardy, easy to keep even on a desk and they cost like a cup of coffee or so.
