[QUOTE="klmno, post: 292978, member: 3699"] Marg has some great ideas. It reminded me once when I was on an especially tight budget but needed to put together a gift, I got a small basket from the dollar store ($1), line it with colorful tissue paper ($1 at most), and filled it with trial sized things that I had picked up at walmart and other places (suntan lotion, fingernail polish, bath oil, lotion, etc) for $0.50-$2 each. The whole thing cost about $10 and people getting ready to travel love the smaller items. I love the idea of the kitchen theme though. And a nice picture frame. I've also done a basket for a neighbor couple that had a few pieces of fruit, cookies and fudge that difficult child made (people don't expect perfection if it's made by difficult child LOL!) and a small gift certificate to a mid-level restaurant. This was at the holidays though for a retired couple and probably wouldn't be as fitting for a young couple getting ready to travel. [/QUOTE]
