Who says it has to be a holiday or special occasion to brighten up one of your best friend’s day? I’ve found sending little gifts or a card randomly throughout the year is one of the best ways to surprise your friends, where he or she least expects it — their mailboxes.
Be sure to customize: The most important thing to remember when you pick out the items is to send meaningful things like his or her favorite candy, candle or CD.
Here are a few good ideas to get you started:
1. A Cal Lu teddy bear ($15, bookstore)
They are so cute! Plus the little T-shirt on them says, “Somebody at Cal Lutheran Loves Me!”
2. Cookies ($4, Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s)
College is stressful, so food is always appreciated. I like Tate’s because there are so many options — gluten free, chipless, chocolate chip… You name it!
Right now they are selling Katy Perry’s Prism at Starbucks on campus!
Target has so manyclassic options, including 17 Again, Mean Girls, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Never Been Kissed and She’s the Man.
