Dear Queenie,
I sent a relative a nice gift for their birthday and I got a nice thank you note from them, but it was for the wrong gift.
Queenie, should I just be glad they wrote a thank you note, or should I say something about it being for the wrong gift, and if so, what should I say?—Thank You Note Etty Ket
Dear Etty Ket,
If you were thanked for the wrong gift, probably someone else was too. It would be a good idea to tell the note-sender – gently, politely – so they can correct the mistake with the other person(s).
