Give a 1-800-Baskets Gift Basket this Holiday Season Review + Giveaway!

Most of our family still lives up north, over 1500 miles away, so going home for the holidays is nearly impossible for us.

Every year we search for the perfect presents to send to our relatives, and struggle to find something that everyone will enjoy.

While working with 1-800-FLOWERS, I was informed about the beautiful collection of gift baskets at 1-800-Baskets.

Our family had the opportunity to review the Festive Holiday Basket from 1-800-Baskets. It arrived filled with treats like crisp flatbread crackers, mint cookies, citrus spice appetizer spread, Fannie May Peppermint Bark, Ferrero Rocher Gold-Wrapped Chocolates, caramel medallions, almond French Twists, Smoky Mozzarella Mini Baguettes, Chocolate Starlight Mints, and Old English Toffee. The metal collectible sleigh can be used year after year to bring holiday cheer.

Often times you order stuff from online or a catalog, and hope and pray that the person that receives it is pleased with the size or the quality of the products. The measurements of the gift baskets are in the description, but seeing it in real life is a completely different experience.

The Festive Holiday Basket I received was much larger than I had thought. In fact, it literally took my breath away when I unwrapped it. I've received gift baskets and fruit arrangements in the mail from other companies during the holidays, but nothing I've ever received compared to this holiday assortment.

Want it?
Visit 1-800-Baskets to find the perfect gift for the person on your list that already has everything. Plus, if you order now, your order will upgraded to expedited shipping to ensure Guaranteed Christmas Delivery. See details here.

WIN IT!



This giveaway is open to residents of the US and will end on December 22th, at 11:59pm EST. One winner will be chosen at random using Random.org. Disclosure: The product above was provided to me, at no cost, by 1-800-BASKETS (a 1-800-FLOWERS entity) so that I could review it. I did not accept monetary compensation for reviewing or writing about this experience, and all opinions expressed are my own.


WINNER!






Please read the WINNERS POST for more information on how to claim your prize! Thank you to everyone who participated & Happy Holidays!
