Gift Basket For VALENTINES!! =]?
I need some really great ideas on what to include in the gift basket to give my boyfriend of almost twoo years!!! guys, tell me what you would reallllly love to see!!! girls tell me what you think too!!!!! Thanks.. 10pts to best answer ;-)
--------------------
a collage of both of your pictures filled with loving memories. Diary of fondness of the little things he does for you. Then include some necessities, stuff he's been hoping for to get all year, (i.e. ball game tickets, new wallet, concert tickets, membership... use your imagination and attention to detail). Then the basket up with home made sweets (find out if he likes sweets or salt stuff), cook some up the day before, make sure they still taste good on the 14th, finally, get some hallmark cards, ribbons and stickers to decorate the outside of the wrap for the basket. On the handle, attach a poem that tells him "you are the love of my life" or sentimental wording that is well fitting for the relationship you are in. Best of luck to you.

Gift Basket Ideas?
My sister is graduating from college and I want to get her a really nice gift basket. I don't want it to be mainly composed of food or anything, so what should I put in it? Any ideas?
--------------------
Put things in it that she loves; like her favorites of everything: candy, perfume, lotion, bath salts, lip gloss, hair products, nail polish, etc. Or maybe find out what her favorite odor or flavor is and put everything pertaining to that. I have a friend and we have an inside joke about Watermelons. Anyway, I sent him a gift box with everything watermelon flavored, scented, etc. It was the best. Does she dream of visiting somewhere specific? Maybe fill a basket with books/information about the place(s) she hopes to one day travel to. The possibilities are endless.....

Get Well Gift Basket Idea's?
I need to make a get well gift basket. One of the gentleman at my company, his wife fell and broke her leg and will be in the hospital for a couple of day. Any idea's of what to put in the gift basket, I didn't really want to do flowers, I figured she will probably be getting a lot of those.
--------------------
I think it would be nice for her to receive lotions, lip balm, a book, a t.v. schedule, a nice cup (so, she wouldn't always need to drink from the styrofoam ones), a fragrance, things she could feel more feminine while she is hospitalized and for when she goes home, unable to walk.

Dont forget the most delecious item all women want, Chocolate! Get the most delicous, yet colorful chocolate at Target, the Choxie brand. http://sites.target.com/site/en/supertar… [Prices usually range from $2.00 and higher depending on size]. Also, you can find these in the food/candy section. Plus: To add a relaxing paradise-y feel for your friend, add bath salts. Buy one at a dollar store, [a pink one preferably] and tie it with a pink ribbon. If you'd rather go the easy route and make it at home, use these: Epsom Salt baking soda (opt) essential oils food coloring jars ribbon, tags, etc. Pour the desired amount of Epsom Salt into a bowl. (This will not harm your bowl). Baking soda is a skin softener, so you can add some if you want to at this point. Add a few drops of essential oil and stir. You can add more as you go along. Then add a few drops of food coloring to achieve the color you want. It doesn't take much! You can see in this picture that I used only 3 drops of green: file:///Users/Own/Desktop/1-27-07+Bath… It will clump a little as you stir it, as you can see, but keep stirring and it will eventually blend and be really pretty.file:///Users/Own/Desktop/1-27-07… I used only 2 drops of red to get pink: file:///Users/Own/Desktop/1-27-07+Bath+S… This is how the pink turned out: file:///Users/Own/Desktop/1-27-07+Bath+S… After you mix it all together, pour it into your jars. A funnel helps. You can include a tiny scoop inside if you want to, or just tie it on with a ribbon. Good places to find jars are: World Market, Walmart, and Target. You can even use Ball jars. I used a combination of eucalyptus peppermint for the green, baby powder for the pink, and tea tree for the yellow. This is how they turned out: file:///Users/Own/Desktop/1-27-07+Bath+S… If I give it as a gift, I like to tie on a pretty ribbon with a tag that has the scent written on it: file:///Users/Own/Desktop/1-27-07+Bath+S… GOOD LUCK!

Is this a good christmas idea?
I want to give my boyfriend a gift basket for christmas that I'll put together. I'm thinking about putting in a nice throw blanket, a Zune skin I made him on skinit.com, a candle (He's a big candle guy) The move: Requiem For A Dream And Peppermint bark, cookies, ect. Any other ideas?
--------------------
Sounds awesome already!!! Does he like Coffee or cocoa? You could get him a nice mug. And if he likes either one, you could also get a bag of nice coffee beans or special hot cocoa to go along with it. Another idea, could be a GC to Blockbuster (or another movie place) maybe even a container of popcorn to go along with it. How great is that, you could watch the movie together one cozy night, while snuggling under the throw blanket from the your basket!

Which system of linear inequalities decribes the condition's in this problem?
Jared earns money by making gift baskets for fathers day. He does one basket filled with finishing supplies and another basket with a sports fan theme, He makes a profit of $9.00 on the finishing Supply basket and a profit of $12.50 on the sports fan basket. He only has time to make 100 baskets and needs to earn at least $1,000 to Cover his summer activities. a) 12.5x + 9y < 1000, x + y > 100 b) 12.5x + 9y < 1000, x + y < 100 c) 12.5x + 9y > 1000, x + y < 100 d) 12.5x + 9y > 1000, x + y > 100 ty in advance. easy points or best answer!
--------------------
The correct answer is C. x is representing the number of supply baskets. y are the sports fan baskets. See how they are multiplied against the money he makes for each one? Now, he has to make 'at least' $1000, so technically it should be greater than or equal to 1000, but then the x + 7, again the number of total baskets made has to be less than 100 (technically less than or equal to) to not run out of time.

Present for Uncle who likes golf?
I need help picking a present for my Uncle. He did my taxes this year at his firm and doesn't charge me but I insist on getting him a present. He has just lost 100lbs and is on a VERY restricted diet. I'd like to get him a golf themed gift basket but all of the pre made gift baskets come with food that he cant eat. His daughter said he can have Diet Coke but snickered at her when she suggested he try those 100 Calorie pack treats. I could make my own basket but any ideas on what I would put in it? Any golfers out there? What would you like to receive as a gift. $0 - $80 range.

What about a round of golf at his local club? You can get him a gift card for that and if loves golf that's the perfect gift!

make up a gift basket yourself....put in their favourite chocolates, bath room toiletries like bath salts etc, small Christmas ornament, photo of the 3 of you and some peanuts or cashews or something like that :-) handmade is more thoughtful and they'll love it...maybe make your own card too. good luck and I hope you have a great Christmas :-)

I am going on exchange trip to mexico, staying with two families, what should i get for house warming gifts?
At my school, we have an exchange program, where kids come from mexico city to spend time with us in the U.S. So anyway, they spent 10 days here and we had lots of fun in NYC. So now, also as part of the exchange program, i am spending 10 days with them. (I will be spending five days at each girls house) So anyway, obviously i need to bring a housewarming gift to each family. Initially i though i would bring them each a victoria secret gift basket, (with like lotions lip gloss and stuff) but the thing is, they both brought stuff for me and my little sister. However, one of my exchange students is one of five, and the other has a little sister. If i bring everyone presents, i will not have room for my luggage. So what i want to do is bring each of them (my two exchange students a gift) and bring something else for the rest of the family any ideas???? Guys i really need to find an answer cause i don't want to bring a stupid gift. I am looking for the best answer

How does this sound for a gift for me to give my Bridesmaid’s?
I am trying to figure out my Gifts to my Bridesmaid's so I can start budgeting for it. I don't want to go the jewelry route (any wedding Jewelry I have gotten I have hated), I doubt my girls will want something with the date on it, and big monogrammed bags will only be cared for by one or two of the 5 of them. So here is my Idea: A decent yet inexpensive Wicker basket from a craft store with ribbon in the wedding colors on the handles. In the basket I will put a bottle of wine from the Fingerlakes region of New York (That is where my FH is from), a small Penn State momento (That is where I am from) and a pair of cute black flip flops for them to change into for the reception if they don't want to wear their heels anymore. Then I might fill it in a bit with candy. Oh! And my 14 year old sister would be getting sparkling grape juice and NOT wine lol Does this sound like something you would enjoy? I know its something I would prefer over jewelry. And they all drink wine (Except the 14 year old) What do you think?
--------------------
I really like the concept, but I disagree with the content. Remember, this is a gift for THEM, who cares what college you attended. The wine idea is cute, but too big and cumbersome perhaps. Candy? These are grown women we are talking about. Like the flip flops idea. Make those nice flip flops I would give them a $50 Sephora gift certificate and save your self time and money. Mismatched odd and ends are not going to be appreciated. Something that they can use will be. Good luck PS/ Jayne, make it then Victorias secret Gift card. All women love those and you cannot go wrong. When I got married, I gave a basket full of bath and body works lotions and potions, VS make up, expensive VS powder etc. and I regret it. It didn't occur to me that perhaps they didn't care about that brand or the scent that I chose. I wish that I could go back in time and give them a gift card instead. Good luck and congrats!!! ETA2/ Love the local truffles idea : ) I would give them the the truffles, the flips and a $25 GC to VS, that would be useful, personal and a treat for them. For the minor, a gift card to GAP, Hollister or American Eagle, Target or whatever kids like to shop nowadays. Good job ; ).

Mismatched odd and ends are not going to be appreciated. Something that they can use will be. Good luck PS/ Jayne, make it then Victorias secret Gift card. All women love those and you cannot go wrong. When I got married, I gave a basket full of bath and body works lotions and potions, VS make up, expensive VS powder etc. and I regret it. It didn't occur to me that perhaps they didn't care about that brand or the scent that I chose. I wish that I could go back in time and give them a gift card instead. Good luck and congrats!!! ETA2/ Love the local truffles idea : ) I would give them the the truffles, the flips and a $25 GC to VS, that would be useful, personal and a treat for them. For the minor, a gift card to GAP, Hollister or American Eagle, Target or whatever kids like to shop nowadays. Good job ; ).
