Shower gift ??

I was invited to the shower of a close friend from high school, it's out of town and I am unable to go...my question is, do I send a gift? I feel like I should but what do you girls think?
TIA!!

My shower was last weekend and almost everyone that was invited that couldn't attend still sent a gift....I don't know if that is common or not, but I was very surprised! It's a nice touch.

I think it's normal to send a gift if you aren't going. My cousin recently had a baby shower in Arizona that I could not get to, and I sent her a gift.

If she has a registry, definately send her a gift. i know that BB&B includes a card and gift wrap at no extra charge. I am still getting gifts from people that didn't attend my shower and I'm loving it
