The Gift Exchange

I have some sisters who are hard to buy for.  I like buy them something that they would not normally buy for themselves, but I don’t really know what that would be. The Toast of California was a big hit with the sister who received it for Christmas last year.  She lives in California and [...]

Remember Peeps, the ubiquitous Easter treat? This is a silly question which I promptly confirmed by a quick search on Google Images. However, when I was 8, Peeps were pure, culinary genius (so were Pixie Sticks). Not too long ago, I thought it would be great to get Peeps for Easter. [...]

I love cookies.! In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever met a cookie I didn’t like. Here at Gifttree, we take cookies seriously. We use only the best, and it’s a rare day when someone around here isn’t eating one of our delicious treats! I think the best day ever was last Fall when I [...]

I cannot believe that Valentines Day is right around the corner. The month of January just flew on by so quick, that I am not prepared yet for it to be February! Valentines Day is a huge event here at GiftTree. It’s one of our busiest holidays of the year, and dare you say [...]

In the previous Corporate Gifts Q&A entries, we discussed complex billing and promotional gifts. This next question is from a sales manager at a busy car dealership and brings us to our next topic: shipping on demand. Q: As part of our marketing strategy I am looking to send thank you gifts to customers who have [...]

I can’t believe how quickly the summer is going. With back-to-school shopping in full swing it appears that fall is right around the corner. Since GiftTree has great gourmet baskets and fruit baskets, we have quite a few parents place orders for their son or daughter while they are away in college. I remember when I [...]
