What would you want in a gift basket?

If you were moving into an apartment that offered a gift basket to new tenents, what would you want to see in that gift basket?
--------------------
What a cute idea. I like the idea of the laminated emergency numbers. I would add the local restaurant delivery numbers and a magnet so they can keep it handy on the fridge. How about a map similar to what you get at a hotel front desk? Listing all the local businesses and recreation ideas. If you wanted to take this up a notch you could put together a nice little folder easily. Include all the apartment rules, contact numbers, local emergency and utility numbers. You could give local businesses such as restaurants, grocery stores, churches, shops, movie theaters, bowling alleys, etc. the opportunity to "buy in" to the directory. They can have ads and coupons and buy paying you a small amount to be featured in the directory they will get business and cover the cost of your baskets. A win-win. Bottled water (it's easy to customized labels with the complexes name). A branded travel coffee mug would be great. I can never have to many of these. And it's free advertising for you everywhere they go! Some nice little snacks are always appreciated. Maybe a branded beach towel to take to the pool. (if the complex has one)
