So few thank-you notes get sent these days, my opinion would be that practically any format is probably better than nothing.
It depends on the definition of "a while." If we're talking a few hours, I'd run it through the dishwasher. If you're talking overnight or longer, I'd probably toss it myself. (You can just imagine what a kid's spill-proof sippy cup of milk is like after being stored under the couch for several days. At that point I can't even bring myself to open it, much less wash it.)
