How do I say "thanks" to friends who've been driving me around for the past two weeks?My car has been in the shop for the past two weeks and since then, I've been relying on my friends to get me around. When they found out I was walking, everyone insisted on giving me rides. While I still walk sometimes, it's mostly been friends, coworkers, and boyfriend making sure I get to work, to the gym, even a few errands.

I was going to suggest "six packs" but you've got that one already LOL. ("Great minds..." and all that.) If not a six-pack, maybe a bottle of wine, or a nice house plant. Or treat 'em to lunch. One of my BFFs loves bath/body stuff so I buy her lotions and pretty soaps when she does me a favor. (She "cat-sits" for me when I go out of town for a few days.)

I'd invite your friends over for a nice home cooked meal. Your coworkers how about picking up the coffee tab for a few days.

Invite them over for a dinner. Or bake a big batch of cookies and give each of them a little bag with a thank you.

A great big cookout this spring/summer. Nothing says thank you and love like food, family, and friends! If you get them 6-packs, offer to be the DD if needed (no drinking/driving) hahahha

I would just give them a card letting them know how much you appreciate them and how much you value their friendship. If they refused the gas money, they will most likely feel guilty taking anything else from you.

I have a friend who has done the same for me. I am taking her and her husband to dinner.

Get everyone together, if you can, and with those six packs order in Pizza. People could gab, break bread and have fun.

You are a very thoughtful and appreciative friend! Do any of your friends like coffee? You could buy them a coffee. I like your six pack idea for friends who drink. You could buy them lunch. I do not really like to promote smoking but if you have a friend who smokes, you could buy a pack.

Beer? You can't be serious. I would total up how much each person has spent on gas driving you wherever they drive you, then I would get each on a gift card to their favorite store, restaurant, salon, whatever. The only time alcohol is appropriate to give as a gift is if you give someone a really nice bottle of wine. Beer doesn't qualify.
