Halloween Gifts Sneak Peak

The temperatures are slowly starting to drop and football season is upon us, this means the glorious days of fall are right around the corner!  With the changing colors of leaves comes Halloween, and The Gift Basket Pros would like to provide a "sneak peak" of what's to come for this spooky time of year.  One of our newest gifts, the Haunting Halloween Gift Box is a ghostly collection of sweet treats for all of the witches and goblins to share.  From hand-decorated Halloween themed cookies to Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Squares, there is something for everyone in this tasty treat!

Our second sneak peak gift is the Halloween Snack Tower.  This frightful 12" tall tower of goodies contains delicious caramel popcorn, hard candies and a few other sweet treats that would be a great way to keep the energy levels up while visiting house to house to collect even more candy!  Choose one of these gifts to send to friends and family or business offices this Halloween season and share in the excitement of the scariest day of the year!

Reasons for Giving Gifts

You may think that gift giving is just about birthdays and Christmas, but did you realize that there are many other reasons for giving a gift to someone special?  If someone has recently been through a string of bad luck, you might want to send a "Thinking of You" gift, full of chocolates, coffee or even fresh fruits.  If someone has been feeling a bit under the weather a Get Well Gift Basket may be just the cure!

For those happier events such as Graduation, Housewarming or even Weddings, The Gift Basket Pros have the perfect way to send your best wishes!  Perhaps the Mrs. Fields® Any Occasion Cookie Basket would suit any of those occasions perfectly!

So do you really need a special occasion to make someone's day a little brighter?  Of course not! The perfect gift is just waiting to be selected to help make that person's day even better.  No matter if the occasion is to feel better soon, or just to say "thanks", there are multiple reasons to give gifts throughout the year.

Corporate Gift Giving

When sending gifts to corporate clients, you might think that all you have to do is select a gift that you think the recipient might enjoy, and that's that!  Although that is generally the way it works, there are a few corporate giving tips that might make the task of gift giving an even better experience.  Being prepared and taking a few extra steps will ensure your gift is delivered perfectly and your recipient is happy.

For example, when you are sending Corporate Gift Baskets, you need to first make sure your recipient's company will allow gifts to be received.  This can be quite embarrassing if they receive a gift but must send it back due to company policy.  Next, make sure you include a suite number if the gift is going to an office building.  This will safeguard that the gift is delivered to the right place.

You also want to double check the spelling of your recipient's names along with confirming the address and zip code are correct.  An incorrect address or zip code could cause the gift to be delivered to the wrong place, or even returned!

And lastly, if sending the gift of wine such as the Business Red Wine Basket, make sure to send the gift to a place of business as most recipients work during the day and a signature is required.  UPS and FedEx drivers will not leave a gift containing alcohol at a residence without a signature.  They generally attempt three deliveries, then return the gift if an adult is unavailable to sign.

With the helpful tips above, this will prevent your gift being returned and you and your company will receive a huge "Thank You" for your thoughtfulness.  So let The Gift Basket Pros help you select the perfect gift and once that is done, let the gift giving begin!
