  I think the $10 GC would be more practical. Honestly, I think people would think the "survival kit" is cute, but a lot of it would get thrown out.

  I picked the dunkies gift card but I don't think you really need to even spend that much.  It's very generous of your mom.

  Even a $5.00 one wouild be good for Dunkin Donuts. Mind you I perfer Tim Hortons but that is only cause we don't have Dunkin Donuts here in Canada

  [QUOTE]I don't think favors are really necessary for a shower.  The bag sounds cute, but if I look at it from my own point of view if I received that bag, I really wouldn't use anything but the bottle of water.  I wouldn't wear a sleep mask, I wouldn't wear slipper socks because I'm always barefoot at home, I don't take Tylenol, and <strong>we don't have a Dunkin Donuts around here</strong>.  It's a cute idea, but I'm not sure you'll get enough bang for the buck.

  I'd be happy with the Dunkin Donuts gift card.

  I'd go with the gift card. Like a PP said, you could even go with a $5 gift card. I think that would be more than acceptable. I've never gone to a shower and expected a favor at all, let alone a $10 gift card. You'll be fine. :]

  I do not see what DD had to do with a bridal shower. I voted neither. I think you can be a little more creative.
  
  How about a small mani/ pedi set?
  Or a movie voucher? Hence.. girls night out!

  <div>The whole reason for the "survival kit" was kind of kicthy (sp) type play on girls' night, ya know, having some drinks and dancing all night. The DD gift card was also a tounge in cheek look at girls' night, I know after a night of drinking and dancing I'm dead to the world without a cup of coffee, thas why my idea was to put a sticker on the card or however they are packaged with a cute note about "the coffee being on us the day after". your right though it might be a stretch</div>

  If there is a DD local to the shower, though, then that shouldn't be a problem.
  I would LOVE a $5 DD gift card. Plus, it will be so much easier. Trust me, they will appreciate it!

  It was a fairytale.
