help with bridesmaids gifts

Yesterday at Victoria Secret I picked up these cute pink totes for all my girls.  I ordered sweatsuits from old navy to put in them.  I'm going to look for some kind of beach towel for each and fill the bag with random other items.  My FMIL thinks I should do a gift card to a nail salon for each of them also.  I'm not really sure about that idea because I don't want it to seem like they have to get there nails done for the wedding.  Normally I would ask my sister what to do but she is my MOH and I want to surprise her.   Also if you have any ideas of things to put in the bags.  TIA.

    If you're looking for just "stuff" without a theme, then I suggest a purse hanger/hook. I think its a super cute idea and not many women have one, but could definitely use it. http://www.pursehook.net/

    Another idea... I received a coach little change purse as a BM gift and its fabulous! I dont think you need to spend extra money to get a name brand, however getting a small purse that matches the wedding theme or color could be nice and handy.

    I have been in several weddings, and each time we received flipflops that matched our dresses. These "dancing shoes" came in handy at the reception
