Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
A tangible (literally) way of saying "Thanks."
Why we love it:
As a culture, we have a little bit of trouble saying "Thank You" to the people who deserve it. We're shy about expressing our heartfelt gratitude, for the large and small things people do for us, and when we finally do we're still so embarrassed that we feel the need to dress it up. Go look through some of the excessively flowery or totally silly Thank You cards in the stationery store if you don't believe us. Some thank you's, big or small, want to be expressed simply and without pretense. You can just say it, of course, but a lasting token is a nice reminder. When it comes to utter simplicity of message, you can't really beat these simple little symbols. Half token, half pop art piece, they say "Thanks" in the clearest way possible. It's a little something to set on their desk to remind them that what they do is appreciated, that's a lot of value in a pretty small package.
