I'd like to get a thank you present for a neighbour's daughter who has been doing us quite a big favour, but have no idea what would be welcomed - don't want to go too to town on budget, but would like something more than chocolates. Any ideas?

I think money is always the best bet with teenagers - I second the ITunes gift voucher as well.

Lord I don't know - she's been looking after rabbits for us for months while work is done on our house - we've contributed to their upkeep etc (she has several rabbits of her own), but it has required effort and some inconvenience on her part too. Budget isn't an issue, BUT I don't want to be too over the top yet at the same time do want her to know that we've appreciated what she's done. Don't want to give money as we've already given her some for upkeep and I do want it to be a "present". Vouchers would be fine.

Suppose the second part of my question is views as to an appropriate sum??
