## Resource

On today’s show, we take your questions on how to tell a friend you don’t want to become their designated delivery address, what to do when someone gives you a generous gift card you can’t actually use, and how to tell a longtime dog groomer that her new prices are out of your budget. For Community Members, we have a question about hosting a celebration before a destination wedding when many guests won’t be invited to the wedding itself. Plus your weekly etiquette challenge, an etiquette salute, and a postscript segment where Dan reads from our parenting book the Gift of Good Manners.
