I'm struggling to think of something appropriate for a teenager who will be doing me a favour over several days.
She is athletic so a box of Celebrations isn't appropriate and I don't think flowers are either. An Amazon voucher feels impersonal so....any other ideas?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I always used to shy away from giving vouchers because I felt it implied you couldn't be bothered to think. Nowadays I feel that it gives the recipient the ability to buy what THEY want, not what you think they want. We give presents to children that we don't really know (the children of distant living god-children) so we always do Amazon vouchers now.
I'd be wary of vouchers. These days they print dates on them and make their own rules do they can legally steal the money by not honouring the voucher if they aren't used by that date. That being the type of world we are creating for ourselves these days. Bank notes tend not to have a use by date, at least not often, but does have a promise to pay.
Find out what mobile phone network she's on, usually payg with teenagers and buy her some credit, they love their mobile phones to catch up on their apps, athletic or not, she'll be following some app, maybe a food/exercise page so credit is great, all my teen relatives love when I give it to them, I always make sure i have the right service provider first though
