During the holiday season, I had an opportunity to check out what the big box stores were offering by way of gift baskets. What I saw wasn't good, what people were doing was even worse. What I saw was gift baskets with hardly anything in them just air, filler and dusty wrinkled cello. I also noticed that the bows were just lumps and clumps of wrinkled fabric.What people were doing was even worse. They were buying them!!! I cant imagine being the recipient of such a gift. Dont they realize that their gift choice represents them. I just couldn't believe it. There are tons of very talented gift basket designers that have excellent choices for gift baskets. They will customize to suit your budget, they will create beautiful one of a kind gift baskets, that wont be found everywhere!!, and they will deliver. Where are these gift basket stores? They are on-line, they are in your neighbourbood, they are everywhere.
Unfortunately, now the word "gift basket" conjurs up thoughts of low quality, cheap goods, thrown in a wicker basket. That's a shame.
Having said that... there are people and businesses that understand quality and excellent service. They get it.
Next time you need a gift. Do a search for a gift basket designer/shop near you. From the comfort of your home, you can shop their website, or give them a call. They will ask you what the occasion is and what's your budget They will make suggestions, ask if you want a gift encl. card and then they'll ask if you want it delievered and when.
Its that easy.
Talk again soon.

I agree, when looking at the tired old baskets at my local department store it makes me wonder why people would buy such heresies and be proud to give them as gifts.
ReplyDeleteThose air filled, dusty baskets full of expired goods are an over priced masterpiece of disgrace. To what you could have from your local gift basket shop.
If you're going to give someone a gift basket, you'd better make sure it's as customized as your feelings for that person. You just can't get that without working with specialized gift basket companies. The cookie-cutter variety that you find at most retail stores just doesn't cut it.
