This Frugal Family

We love Gourmetgiftbaskets.com.  It is such a great site to go to for such fun gifts.  Their products are great, and they have lots of pizzazz.  It’ll make any get together better. I gave the Taste of Elegance Gift Tower to my husband.  It looked so good, that I wanted to keep it, but I passed it on.  He loved it.  All the caramel candies and cookies made him go MMM.  He told me to get another one.  It was worth every penny, for goodness sakes, it’s had to please a man! They also have a Festive Favorites Gift Tower, that would make an excellent gift as well.  The Festive Favorites Tower promises to have all Gourmetgiftbaskets.com favorites.  You can check out the contents by clicking on the link. I’ve also received a Popcorn Tin, with an NFL logo on it, for my father.  He loved his popcorn.  Said it tasted great. The popcorn tin is sure to be a great gift for anyone who loves the sport.  My dad has been watching football since I was just a kid, so I knew this would be perfect. There is an entire Christmas Section on Gourmetgiftbaskets.com.  You are sure to find…

This time, we went with the Steelers Popcorn Tin.  Your favorite team is available, too.  We always save our popcorn tins, and use them for other things.  This time, I’ll be washing it out, and putting my in laws puppy’s toys in it.  They will love this.  All the toys in one place, and celebrating our Steelers. The popcorn flavors are great, there’s Kettle Corn, Carmel Corn, and Cheesy Cheddar Corn.  The Kettle (sweet and salty) is always a favorite in our house.

I love GourmetGiftBaskets.com.  I was able to find my 6 year old, son, a great back to school gift, for First Grade.  He keeps saying “I’m not going back to school until I’m 14!”  But, we just keep telling him it doesn’t work that way.  So, I came across the cutest Back To School Basket, through GourmetGiftBaskets.com, that I just had to get him.  Even though school doesn’t start here, until August 28, I let him open it, but told him that he has to go back to school in order to be allowed to open it. When he saw the Teddy Bear, in the Back To School Bear Hug Care Package,  he got an immediate smile on his face.  He fell in love.  If there was a way that I could send the teddy bear to school, without the other kids picking on him, I would.  It would probably ease the first day jitters.  However, I take him back and forth, so I can put it in the car, and have it in his car seat when he gets picked up.  He also enjoyed all the treats, in the basket, and even shared some with us. There was a lot in…
