[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess flowers are your best bet. If someone tells you they didn't like what you sent and can't give you any ideas about what might be more appropriate, that's also pretty salty so consider that her reaction to not getting a gift may not be worse than when she does get a gift. What does she send you?[/quote]

The sister told her not send anything. That is literally what she wants.

What is wrong with people? You attach all this judgment to people who say "no gifts please" and you are probably the same people complaining about finances or someone not sending you a proper thank you note. No gifts means no gifts. If you chose to send something anyway it is not a gift, it is an imposition and it is rude, but you do you.

The sister did not say "don't send anything" and that is the problem. I'm not a gifty person so I am very happy when family agrees that we won't do gifts, but for a sister who expects a gift I would oblige and try to find something she would enjoy.[/quote]

But she did say not to send something. she said no stuff. And no food. Donate to a charity if you must do something, and send her the receipt. You could also ask about college fund or savings account for small kids.[/quote]

How about calling it quits on the gifts by mutual agreement.[/quote]
