• Bed Bath & Beyond has a great selection of new towels and linens for a brand new home.
• What if something needs to be fixed when they're new in town? A certificate from American Residential Services is a useful gift.
• Crate and Barrel has lamps, accessories and furniture in a range of styles.

I'd like to give my friends who are moving out of town a gift, but they are in the process of downsizing and packing. Any suggestions?
What about a gift certificate? It takes up virtually no room, and will be perfect when they arrive in their new town.

My friends are leaving the town we live in. They aren't sure if their house will be ready in time when they arrive in their new area. What's the best way of helping them out since I am not in their new city?
It's easy to purchase credit at a hotel for a one night stay or longer. Your friends will love this gesture as it implies they won't need to impose on anybody else and it should lend a hand financially, since moving to a new city can be very costly.
