For the Bus Driver or the Lady @ the Post Office

I don't know who the host is during the 7am est show but she is showing a robe by Kathyrne Zeta Jones. She is suggesting buying it for your child's busdriver or the lady behind the counter at the post office. Seriously????

@disneynut57 - I think it should go to the shampoo girl at the salon instead.

I think that is too personal of a gift for a bus driver or someone who works at the post office.

Way too personal....most post office people barely acknowledge your existence.

You could have a friend or family member working at the post office or driving a bus.

Postal Employees are also not allowed to accept gifts.

Whenever the hosts say things like that I just gloss over it.

How about the shut in elderly neighbor? Or maybe a single mom you may know?

@disneynut57 That was Nancy Hornback. I give gifts to our postal worker, etc, but not a bathrobe ! Ridiculous.

No, but I have seen worse , I also cut the hosts some slack. They have a lot of airtime to fill ,and it isn't as easy as some people think

That is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous ! I slip the Mail deliverer $25 and no one knows the difference but maybe I can leave it out for the woman who delivers our paper. I have never seen her and know she is the same woman because I have gotten a card from her for the past 20 years. Bet she be thrilled in getting a robe from a stranger instead of cash.

It's always interesting to see the hosts come up with new people who require gifts.

I agree. I am sure there are people that can do that, and that's nice.

Besides, they just say it because it's a suggestion. I pay no attention or just hear it and let it go and move on.

@Keybra : I'm going to assume your paper lady puts her name and address in the card. I make that assumption because mine does.

I put cash in a Christmas card and mail it to our guy thanking him for always being reliable.

@disneynut57 That is so funny! LOL......I think the same thing every time they say silly stuff like that. If you're buying gifts for all those people, more power to you. I find myself buying less gifts for people every year. I do donate a gift through my church every Christmas, IMO that's a better idea. Many times mail persons change where I live as does the UPS driver, etc. so you don't always receive the services from the same people.

Nancy comes across to me as one of the more intelligent hosts. I doubt she would come up with that gem on her own. I blame her producer whispering that nonsense into her earpiece, lol.
