canuckeh! 51 Posts May 4, 2005 Nurses are coming from all over the country. There are no national chains of spas that everyone would be able to access. We need a prize that either anyone could access or anyone could take home with them, no matter the mode of transportation.

My colleagues presented me with a gift certificate at my going away party. Can't wait! (this isn't an ad for this company, just wanted to let people know about it, my colleagues are super!)

How about Just a gift certificate for a dinner at a nice restaurant. You cannot go wrong with that.

All very popular booths! One both was giving away those plastic "livestrong" type bracelets that said I heart nursing. My school sells bracelets that say "Live to Give, be a Nurse" they were a big hit. The IPod booths definately had the longest lines.
