Gift Idea

Kachina624 — Tue, 28 Nov 2017 02:11:51 GMT

If someone you know has fond memories of a visit to one of our national parks, there is a company producing beautiful posters suitable for framing of many of them. These would be a great gift for a man for his office or "cave". I have one and just ordered another. The website is fiftynineparks.com.

A few weeks ago, I ordered from costco on-line a set of 4 colognes - called English Laundry Coffret Set - for $36.99. Today, it's $21.99 + tax. Comes in an attractive case. I like wearing men's cologne once in a while - as it's stronger than women's. Macy's is selling same set for $78. Would make a nice, inexpensive gift. I ordered another set for me.

That didn't work for me, I googled it and it came up as 59parks.net

Does anyone else have a unique gift idea they've discovered?

Today I made a donation to my favorite charity in the name of a friend.

Probably can't do this anymore but I have a niece who is very into the horror and scary stuff.

She went wild over a beauty case I bought another niece for her birthday so of course I got her her very own for Christmas.

I went to Walmart to get her the same sample beauty products I filled the other one with UNTIL I saw they had Halloween on clearance.

For about $2, I bought her every Halloween makeup kit they sold this season. The present is just completely her. I love it when I can do that.

If you have someone with a military connection, you can order bottle openers made from .50 caliber ammunition. Odd, I know, but men seem to appreciate them. What I like about them is that they are made by Veterans in the U.S. They're Bottle Breacher (.com).

@Kachina624, that's a great idea. I'm for anything that reminds us of how beautiful and how "fragile" our public lands are.

My moms husband took his spent shot gun shells and used them as light covers on strung lights.

@Karlakaye

I emailed Costco today - and they're crediting me $15 on the first set - even though it's a little past 30 days. Don't u love Costco? Whoever receives these colognes will be very happy!!!!
