Saying “thank you” is easy…
Never written thank you notes before? Don’t worry. Just follow our simple guidelines. If you’re still stuck, check out our sample thank you messages for some great ideas.

• Every gift, whether received by mail or in person, should be acknowledged with a thank you note
• Don't limit thank you notes to people who have sent gifts. Now is the time to remember and thank special teachers, coaches, relatives and friends from high school or elementary school. Personal thank you notes are especially nice to use for this purpose.
• Send thank you notes promptly. Start right away and finish no later than one month after graduation.
• Always hand write thank you notes and hand address the envelopes. E-mail is not appropriate.
• Mention the gift specifically in the note and express appreciation.
• When you receive money as a present, don’t mention the amount. Do, however, mention how you plan to spend the money.
• Use your personalized envelope seal on the flap and personalized return address labels.
• Avoid making thank you notes look like form letters by adding a personal reference to each one. See our sample thank you messages.
