[QUOTE="klmno, post: 214713, member: 3699"] difficult child's old school used to ask parents to make gift baskets with different themes. I liked that idea and enjoyed doing it because the person doing it could pick their own theme, depending on what they were interested in or what was readily available. Also, they can have a set price or "auction" them off to the highest bidder. Baskets can be bought at a dollar store and contained things varying from a person volunteering to work for someone in their yard, gift certificates to a mexican restaurant, movie night (filled with popcorn/candy and gift certificate to a movie rental place), yard working supplies and flower seeds or bulbs, grilling supplies, school supplies, Italian dinner (filled with different pasta mixes and a couple of containers that could be kept and reused), etc. Another is the "auction" of items you have that you just don't want anymore but are still usable. Not like old clothes, but maybe artwork/pictures to hang, scultpure, bird feeder, about anything that lasts a long time but people get tired of or want to replace when they redecorate. [/QUOTE]
