etiquette-wise, no. You don't send a thank you note for a thank you gift.
If you walk someone's dog during their vacation and they bring you a t-shirt, the t-shirt is the 'thank you.' You don't write a thank you note for the thank you gift.
I apply the same to the tip.
HOWEVER - if you run into the guest face to face, it would be nice to say, thank for the tip!.
Good points. Thanks! ;-)

Don't get me started on wedding registries. LOL
I'm an etiquette nerd. Way behind the times on weddings and other invitations. I have a long list of etiquette pet peeves. Just call me Miss Beach Manners.

I think Miss Manners is ok with registries, just not putting the info in the invitation.
I've seen some doozy letters about this, tho.
The latest was a gal who complained to her co workers that they weren't giving her the big ticket items on the registry, just the small stuff.
Really? Maybe your attitude is why no one popped for the kegerator?
I'd ask for my gift back and say I would return it for something else. And then give *myself* the better gift with the refund.
People!
