where would you suggest getting a gift certificate from?
FAO Schwartz is a big named store. Found in NY and SF. They\'re basically the competitor of Toys R Us. You might want to see if they have a website too. I\'m pretty sure that there are Winnie the Pooh grad-theme stuff. I have a photo frame of with Winnie in a graduation gown! I think they have those small stuffed Winnie\'s with the year somewhere on the doll. That\'d be so cute. You might want to get a wicker (sp?) basket and fill it up with Winnie-themed-graduation-themed stuff!
As for gift certificates, you can get them from practically anywhere. Like before, Build-a-Bear has certificates. If you want to go with Bath and Body...I\'m sure they have certificates too. Personally if I were to get Bath and Body stuff, I\'d go with the candles, lip balms, lotions, bath salts and not soaps and perfumes. Maybe I\'m over analyzing, but when I get Bath and Body stuff that are for cleaning purposes it\'s like the person who gave them to me say that I smell. However like I said, I\'m probably overanalyzing.
Anyway, another place you can get gift certificates from is, of course, the Disney store. If she\'s planning on moving out, you can try Ikea or other furniture stores. If you have some theatres around and she\'s into theatrical stuff you can get her tickets to that.
Another gift certificate idea is to make your own. Like, lets say that she wants a stuffed animal. YOu can make a fake dollar thing that says, "Redemable (sp?) for a stuffed animal of your choice at the store of your choice." Put some credit amount on the piece of paper. That way she can choose what she likes at whatever store. It would be less restricting.
That\'s all I can think of right now. Hope that helps (or makes sense!).
