My boyfriend and I are combining our 1 year anniversary and Christmas gifts this year. The problem is, when I ask him for ideas, he says I don't need to get him anything. He's just saying it to be nice because he knows we are exchanging gifts, but it doesn't help me, I need ideas! I have some ideas and I'd love opinions and other ideas: Ralph Lauren V-neck sweater Nice swiss army knife PSP Go Ralph Lauren leather wallet Gift basket with clothes- t-shirts, sweatshirt, hat, boxers
--------------------
I think those are all great ideas. If you want to get him one expensive thing get the PSP Go and one or two games. If you want to get numerous small things, do the basket idea. Fill it with a shirt from his favorite store, a bottle of cologne, a movie, a hat, a few pairs of boxers, his favorite kinds of candy, scratch-off tickets, and anything else small he might like. Good luck!

Spa/Bath Gift Basket for Christmas?
Im wanting to make my sisters ( 15 and 18) their own basket of all kinds of bathroom type stuff. My mom just buys them whatever she wants to use for instance shampoo, razors, bath soap...they never really have their "own" stuff. Thought it would be a cute idea. Im trying to get a list together so I don't leave anything out. Also what should I put it in? A wicker basket? but I want it to be wrap able.
--------------------
Hi. I think it would be cute to buy them each a small laundry basket. I would fill it with the following items: Shampoo, deodorant, razors, body wash, maybe some bath and body works hand soap, a candle, maybe some feminine products, a back scrubber, a new bath robe, and some new slippers. If you put all of this in a laundry basket, they could use the basket for other things as well.

Gift idea for 60th birthday (female)?
My mother in law's birthday is Saturday and I want to get her a gift basket of goodies. Thus far I have a gift certificate for a spa pedicure and manicure, glamorous wash gift set (for linens), a small box of purchased "homemade" turtle candies.

What should I put in a cheer up gift basket?
One of my coworkers has been having a tough week. Her uncle, who she was very close with, passed away, then someone broke into her apartment (her boyfriend was there and scared the guy away before he stole anything, but still, scary!), and then she got robbed on the street by a guy with a shotgun. A shotgun! All in one week! Crazy stuff. Another coworker and I want to make her a little cheer up gift to make her feel better. I was already thinking about getting her a new purse/wallet, since those were stolen, what are some other good ideas to include?
--------------------
Sweet of you. The purse probably would be enough, but you could get her some other little things. It depends on what she likes and how much money you want to spend, but little luxury items like nail polish, a new lipstick or lipgloss to help her put on a happy face amid all the stress, stress relievers like spa products or a gift certificate for a massage. Make sure to include a handwritten note or card to let her know how much she means to you.

Urgent!!! have a fancy chocolate basket to give to boss-should i wrap it or what??
so it's a fancy gdiva chocolate gift basket with a nice bow and decorations. for my boss. should i put it in a bag or just give it the way it is??
--------------------
I think you shouldn't wrap if ONLY if it's like REALLY fancy, but if it is REALLY fancy, you should wrap it just to impress the boss. just watch out if it's too fancy because your boss might think he's paying you too much.

Interesting idea's for a bachelorette party gift!?
I am looking for a good way to wrap a bachelorette party gift. I have gotten her a marriage survival kit with some sweet and many funny gifts. It is all in a large basket since I hate the waste of wrapping paper. But I want it to look like a gift. Normally I would just tie some ribbon on the handles or maybe a bow right in the middle, but considering the type of party it is, I was looking to do something a little more interesting. Any idea's?
--------------------
1- buy an adhesive tape that can be removed afterwards 2- change 50$ bill for 50 of 1$ 3- glue all bills by using the tape & making square form sheet. 4- wrap your present 5- good luck.

Fair Trade Small business name idea?
I have a small business that only sells gift baskets that are completly filled with fair trade products. My business is thriving but I really don't have a name for it yet. Ideas?
--------------------
The name must connect with your customers. The name should be instantly recognizable with your product. The name should inspire the need to have it. I'd need to know more about your fair trade products... However, you can't go wrong with a twist on other popular names. Look at your business plan and your target market/s... this will point you in the correct direction. Good Luck

I need a gift for a 58 year old man and I am SOOOO stuck on ideas! Help!?
He doesn't play golf, gamble, fish, or hunt. He has a million books already, and I have already given him way too many gourmet food and coffee baskets. He doesn't wear ties. I need something really different and interesting. He's stocked up on wallets, keychains, and other man gifts. Ideas?
--------------------
How about a nice bottle of Tia Maria, Kolua, Grand Marnier, Remy Martin, Dom Perignon. You know his taste, no? ~ Remember, the best present to give is one, that the recipient would dearly love, but would never buy himself. A chess game, a computer. Or offer to index all his books either in a database (Access) or spreadsheet. (Excel). A fruit of the month selection.

Can I ship homemade cookies from North America to Germany through FedEx?
I want to send my boyfriend in Germany cookies for his birthday but I don't know if I'm allowed to send them through FedEx, UPS, DHL, etc.. or if I should just find a european website and send him a gift basket of some kind..
--------------------
Yes as long as particular food items aren't restricted by the country of import. That goes for all shipping companies. If you want them there in a timely manner, use fedex or ups. It would only take about 2-3 days. Post Office would be cheaper and take at least 5-10 business days.

Best gift for climbing instructors?
What's a good gift for my child's rock climbing instructors? They're college students working in the outdoor adventure department of the university (so they're into a variety of outdoor sports, not just climbing). There are usually five or six in class so maybe a basket of something? Power bars & gu? Box of donuts?

Gift vouchers for a store that sells a variety of outdoor sports equipment. EDIT after seeing your additional information: perhaps you could find out if a significant number of them go to the same bar/pub, possibly after work, and put some money behind the bar for them to spend on a round of drinks.

How popular is ebid.net?
I was going to open an ebay store but I heard the fees just keep going up, so I heard that ebid.net was become like the new ebay. I opened a store selling my gift baskets and I haven't really had anyone look at them.
--------------------
That's because noone or few people know about that website, I personally never heard about it, so that's why nobody looked at your items. Try best buy and if there any difference, maybe it tust your buskets aren't really popular. Good luck

Are there ethical concerns which would prevent doctors from receiving a present from a patient?
I want to send a food gift basket to a surgeon who operated on my grandfather at a hospital in NYC. Are there any ethical (or legal?) issues that would prevent him from accepting the gift? I don't want an awkward situation. Please answer only the question ask without offering alternatives (I don't want to donate money to a cause, etc. --- I just want to give a 'thank you' present).
--------------------
There might be if eg the doctor was responsible for moving people up and down on a waiting list. If, eg, you told the doctor you would do him a favor if he moved your grandfather higher on the list, then you would be acting unethically. If there is no such situation, then no problem.

would you like this as a chrismtas gift?
ok..so my husband an i are broke this year for christmas due to unforseen bills. so we decided to make baskets for family members this year.. in the baskets we put a fleece blanket, a sauce gift set, a jar with stuff in it to make their own chili, box of lindt chocolates, a tree ornament, a candle, a portable cell phone charger, some mugs and some tangerines! would you like this as a gift..or does it suck..be honest..thanks merry christmas to all
--------------------
I would keep my money and perhaps invite them all over for a potluck dinner. I would put my own immediate family FIRST this year. Due to unforseen bills,and saying you are broke,means exactly that YOU ARE BROKE.so don't give to others this year,just have the potluck,do you realize how much you would be spending on those baskets? How many bills could you cover with the money those would cost,or how much in groceries would that buy for your own family to eat? I am sorry but I do NOT think buying Lindt chocolates for someone else when my own family is in need would be a good thing to do. I would be more than grateful to get a gift like you are talking about,but would feel really bad if I knew they needed the money for themselves and spent it on a gift basket for me,I would really feel terrible and hopefully your own family would feel the same. Keep the money and pay your own bills this year.
