It's my co-worker's birthday, I have only known her for a few short weeks and she's always in need of coffee. We work right next to a Zaro's and I forgot to see if they do provide gift cards. I doubt they do but I guess I just want a second opinion.

how many of you had a very nice experience in the hospital where you gave birth?
the hospital's service was beyond my expectation. Everyone was so kind from the nurses to the housekeeping employees. I am sending a gift basket (fruits, chocolates, nuts, etc) to the staff on the floor to show them my appreciation of their outstanding service.
--------------------
me!! everyone was soooo nice. they were always coming by just to see if i wanted something to eat or drink, to ask if i needed pain meds. i NEVER had to call the nurse, they were always there before i even needed them! btw, i had an epidural and was induced and i LOVED my birth experience. the nurses were so supportive and made me feel like i was in control. they helped me move around since i couldnt move my legs and they made sure that i was always taken care of. EDIT: like alyssas mommy, my hospital also had a free kitchen for family/husbands/patients. they also ALWAYS gave 2 meals at meal time, 1 for mommy 1 for daddy/boyfriend/parent/whoever was staying with you. most hospitals dont feed your husband, so that was very nice! they also just renovated the hospital i delivered at so the rooms were VERY nice. hardwood floors, flat screen tvs, brand new couches and gliders, hardwood basinettes and beds. i delivered at Flowers Hospital in Dothan, AL

do you think it would be a good idea going around my reception with a basket picking up my wedding gift?
would it look rude to do that at my wedding or should i buy like does Cute wedding mailbox and put it on the front of the entrance where the table seating cards goes?
--------------------
That would be incredibly rude. People who don't bring gifts will feel awkward and you'll look greedy. You should definitely stick with the traditional gift table. The mailbox (on the gift table) is really cute idea! Congrats :-)

good presents for an amaaazing dance teacher?
my dance teacher is taking a break and won't tell us why, but we've heard it's for a really sad reason to do with her family. she has supported me so much and me and my friend are making a gift basket to say goodbye but we're not sure what to put in it. some dance symbols or other stuff? we love her so much and hate to say goodbye and want to give her something amazing :) any ideas? thankyou!
--------------------
Its really sweet of you do put something together like that and im sure that she'll love everything to do with it, purely because it shows the thought you've put in to it. Here are some things that you could do- Get her some good tickets to a professional dance show that you know she'd enjoy watching If she teaches ballet, get her a pair of pointe shoes, and all your class to sign them Group photo's of your class with her Get a note book and write down all the amazing memories you've had with her Get another note book, and each write a little message A CD of some of her favorite music, either that she likes dancing to, or some that you know she just likes. Make a video of going round everyone and asking them random questions about your dance teacher. like 'whats the most embarrassing thing ___ has ever done?" etc Little things you could put in to do with dance- Pointe shoe keyring http://www.dancedirect.com/uk/Products/A… Dance necklace http://www.dancedirect.com/uk/Products/A… or http://www.dancedirect.com/uk/Products/A… Funny t-shirts http://www.dancedirect.com/uk/Products/A… or http://www.dancedirect.com/uk/Products/A… or http://www.dancedirect.com/uk/Products/A… Things not related to dance. If you put in everything dancey, then it will give the impression that she is a dance teacher and nothing else. To show she is a friend and not just a teacher, put in a few things not related to dance. For example- find out her favorite food. If it is say chocolate, buy a few of the most luxary and posh chocolates you can find. (inless her favorite chocolate is cheap brands). Find out her favorite colour and get a few cnadles or something in that colour. Find out her favorite perfume. Things that are personal to her will show her you've really thought about it. Obviously it depends on your budget, but if you can get everyone the class to chip in then it will be really good. and you probably won't be doing it again so why not give her somethign really special. Hope this helps!

It's that time of the year, what do you get your bosses for Christmas. I have two weeks!?
In years past we have gotten them: Movie ticket packages, spa gift cards, gift cards to our local Arena(for concerts/sporting events), Harry & David gift baskets. They are both Doctors, have everything they want/need and can buy what they don't have. They are vegetarian, eat at favorite spots for free most nights, don't drink alcohol. We have allowed ourselves to spend $120.00 total.

How about a good "coffee table book" about some aspect of their medical specialty or some medical-themed desk figurine?

What's a fun/neat way to give this Xmas gift?
I bought a cruise for my boyfriend as an Xmas gift. I was a fun way to give it to him though, not just give him a few papers that says we're going on a cruise. On EBay I have purcased a little Southwest airplane, a plastic Princess Cruise ship, postcards from St. Thomas and a mug from St. Maarten. I don't want to arrange them in a basket, I want it to be a bit more challenging, like open one at a time but I don't just want a stack of gifts...what's a good/exciting way to have him open these items that will slowly start to get him mind working and trying to figure how these all tie together?
--------------------
I like the tresure-hunt idea. Can you write poetry at all? If you can, give him one of the small gifts wrapped, with a note tucked in saying, oh, I don't know, "To find your gift, you first must see/What I have hidden on the tree." Then you could hide trinket #2 in the Christmas tree branches. And so on, and so forth. If the rhyming clues are too much of a hassle, you could just put cryptic clues like "You'll find the next clue where we keep the paper clips" or similar. This sounds like a fabulous gift and a very lucky boyfriend. And my goodness, you have to have a pretty thin skin to get your tail in a knot about how to spell Christmas! Oh well. A very merry Xmas from me. :)

Are Gift Baskets actual today?
Hello! Can you, please, answer me whether Gift baskets are actual today? How often are they sold? And, also, have you ever wanted to buy a gift basket by yourself? Do people buy gift baskets only for holiday presents? Thank you for the answer.
--------------------
Look gift basket is not at all an old tradition. It actually all time admired tradition. But the fact is that you have to decide that what you want to give for a particular occasion. Think what you want to pour for a particular occasion is entirely depends on you. They are sold on a regular basis and I also gift my uncle and aunt on their marriage anniversary.

Idea's for a Spa Retreat and Eat Party?
My friends own an up and coming, successful Mobile Spa Party Unit. She is planning on hosting a His and Her's party. Its going to be held in December, and there is going to be a His Party, and a Hers Party. Of course Spa themed, but we are looking at what kind of vendors should she invite to the advent. She currently has chefs, and party planners signed up for the event. Any ideas what you would like to see. I was going to contribute products from my business in gift baskets as a raffle for the event.

Of course an Easter basket but is there anything bunny or Easter themed you are getting your daughter? Maybe something that stands out and is a bit different. I was thinking of getting The White rabbit stuffed animal, from Alice in wonderland. She loves that story

is there any organizations giving out thanksgiving baskets or christmas gifts....?
i am without work right now and pay very high rent i find it hard to make ends meet are there any churches or organizations giving out baskets during the holidays to the needy families....
--------------------
What state are you in? I would have to know that before I could answer... My state (town) has several differant organizations helping people with ThanksGiving and Christmas. If I were you I would open up your yellow pages in your phone book and call EVERY church listed until you find the one's that are helping. You can also call your local Health Department and ask them of any services helping low income familes during the holidays, They may know of some. Good luck!!!

Useful baby showers gift ideas?
I am planning on putting a "basket" together, except instead of a basket, using a diaper bag. What are some things that the new momma will need, and get plenty of use out of?
--------------------
DO NOT!!! I REPEAT DO NOT give her newborn diapers! I was given sooo many and barely used any of them!!! I would also get her a travel wipes case, nursing apron if she's nursing, spit up rags, and a couple light weight receiving blankets. I'm trying to rack my brain for things that I have in my diaper bag, but that's about it! hats would be a good one too.

Is the "War" in Iraq the best recuting tool Al Qeda has ever had or could have hoped for?
Should Osama send Cheney a gift basket?
--------------------
Invading Iraq was not about terrorism or protecting America. If we had just concentrated on Afghanistan after 9/11 and not attacked Iraq, Al Quaeda would no longer exist. Instead the occupation of Iraq has increased their numbers to a viable force. Neocon ignorance has severely compromised America's security. The fools.

What is this so-called FARTLESS stuff?
I was looking around for gift baskets for the holidays and came across this site with some really wierd stuff. One of their gift baskets has "Fartless Chili" and "Fartless Beer Bread"... has anyone ever heard of this stuff? Is it really fartless? And more importantly, do you think I should get it for my dad? I want to get him something "different" and "funny" this year... whatcha guys think? http://www.pappywishbone.com/Pappys-Redneck-Hoedown-Basket/
--------------------
While it's a funny gag gift, I personally don't believe in restricting one's farts.

help with a wedding shower gift?
http://www.etsy.com/listing/50444684/cla… i bought this apron for my soon to be sister in law, but i want to add some more small gifts. i was thinking maybe some measuring cups and a cake pan with the apron or the apron a cook book and a cassarole dish or if you have any ideas. i am leaning towards the cake pan, because then i can add a cake mix and make it like a basket gift. most of the things on her registry are out of my budget range, but she did have a nice cake pan on there, as well as a nice cassarole dish. which would you rather have? i dont want to do a gift card.
--------------------
How about a cookbook with her favorite type of cuisine or maybe some romantic recipes since they are newlyweds. And maybe as a gag include a rolling pin, because every good wife should have one just in case her husband gets out of line. Just Joking... I would go with the first suggestion.

What do I get a couple for Christmas?
My bestfriend and her boyfriend bought me a mystery gift from The Buckle. I am going to visit them next week, they live out of town, but I am still not sure what to buy them. I was thinking of something in around $75 dollars total for the both of them. A few ideas I have had are matching Cardigans from American Apparel or a gift basket with lotto scratch-offs and other things... I am open to any other ideas or suggestions!
--------------------
The best thing to get ANYONE is a gift card! And they have made it very easy, they have visa as well as American Express gift cards that they can use anywhere!! Let them pick their own gift, and it's better then giving cash! I could not think of a better gift!! Good Luck!! :o)

Is it Okay to Switch Cleansers From Day to Day?
I use Velocity and really like it. I recently recieved a St.Ives gift basket that came with one of their cleansers and I really like it too. Like, can I use one cleanser one day and a different cleanser another without harming my skin? Is it bad for my skin?. -Mango Diary

Can Sopressata be baked, and is it good baked?
We just got a gift basket of Sopressata from some company, and I wasn't sure whether or not I could bake it into like a pasta dish or something.
--------------------
It is is similar to salami and can be cooked if you want to, I like the hot sliced and used in the same manner as prosciutto, sliced or diced into pasta sauce, in salads like ham, in soups instead of bacon or ham, in an antipasto platter with other cured meats, olives, cheeses and veg. I like it in a sandwich with a bit of onion and provolone cheese, warm or grilled on a panini press or open grilled and a slice of eggplant added, even use it to stuff a chicken breast or pork chop for something different.

What items would be apporpriate for a baseball giftbasket (aside from tickets)?
I am having a raffle at a baseball themed event and want to make up a "Baseball Fun Day" gift basket for one of the prizes.... other than tickets what should go in there? I'm not a sports person and I know you cant take food into the parks so what else would go in there?

Maybe a baseball glove, a t-shirt w/ the team the logo of the team you are supporting, a hat, bag of: popcorn/peanuts/cotton candy/big league chewing gum. Great idea btw... I wish someone would send me a baseball giftbasket! I'm a HUGE O's fan!!! Have fun with it!

--------------------
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Switching Cleansers from day in and day out is VERY bad for your skin. You can dry out and problems like psoriasis (peeling), roasacae (blotchy redness and unevenness of tone), and breakouts of acne or eczema. Pick one and stick with it if it's working for you. St. Ives is said to have lots of oil despite its announcements though, so I would stick with Velocity. You will harm your skin if you use both. Instead of a cleansing wash, you could use one wash and a moist toilette or cream- but not both washes!

Which of these is the best way to get your girlfriend to break up with you?
A) make a youtube video of you shaving off her eyebrows while she's passed out B) Tell her that her mom's better in bed C) Put Nair in her shampoo D) Give her a gift basket of mouthwash, deodorant, feminine deodorant spray, a razor, and dandruff shampoo
--------------------
Hmmm either A) or C) or B)..... I think C) would be pretty instant though.
