Easy, Thoughtful Gift Ideas

I love the idea that gifts can be consumable services like:  Tickets to a movie; a day at the museum; a  home-delivered meal; a gift certificate for a massage; a professional housekeeper for a day; an evening of babysitting; skill sharing like music lessons, singing lessons, computer advice; pet sitting; gift certificate for a facial; golf lessons; a day at a spa.  Thinking about the people I love, I can see how I might make a gift of the kind of help I can give.  Wouldn't this be a nice change from giving "stuff?"
