How To Save Fathers Day ~ Gourmet Gift Baskets Giveaway!

in Lifestyle on 05/28/10

Fathers Day is coming screeching around the corner!  Are you ready?  With both my Father and my Hubby to purchase for I am once again forced to be fabulous and come up with an amazing gift for these two amazing and oh so different men.  How does a ModernMom on the go find the perfect gift with out breaking a sweat?  I’ve done the ties, the golf shirts and hats, the sappy cards and candy, even the framed pictures of the kids, which frankly are more often enjoyed by me then them!  
Tired of stumbling through store after store I turned to the internet and discovered what is truly going to be my go to on-line store for all things gift.  Gourmet Gift Baskets.  Now I have done the gift basket route before, including a couple of fairly weak attempts to make my own pretty, but never have I come across gift baskets like this!  Gourmet Gift Baskets offer an incredible array of unique and classy baskets.  Without a doubt you can find a basket for that special someone in your life.  Whether the occasions is Fathers Day, Birthdays, an Anniversary or Just Because, I really think this is the place to shop!  Take a look at some of these little beauties.  

Here is one I am considering for my Dad.GGBSix-Beer-Bucket-Gift-Basket_small
Beers from around the world all
wrapped up with the best munchies
and the ice bucket too. Perfection.

Of course while I was perusing the site I couldn’t help but fall in love with a little something for myself.  On my Bucket list is a trip to Paris.  I have a feeling this little lovely would be a perfect gift for me….um especially with a couple of airline tickets tucked in the top!

This little number is the lucky basket that landed
on my door step for me to review!  GGBBarbecue-Boss-Grilling-BBQ Thanks to the generous people of Gourmet Gift Baskets this is also the fantastic basket that I am able to offer as a GIVEAWAY! Woot Woot!

Let me tell you just a little about it!
It was a rainy and dark day when the UPS Man rang my door.  What did he have for me in his oh so carefully wrapped box?

      I’m loving the BBQ idea. My dad just had a bad test at the Dr. His sugar is way up again so there won’t be any sweets for his father’s day this year. Luckily, he can still eat meat. Thanks for giving me at least one idea!
