Two of my friends will be receiving these because refrigeration is a premium and these are some of the oldest ways to keep butter fresh:I have a few things already set aside and will probably buy for the locals before Thanksgiving. As loathsome as I find sending gift cards, the cost of sending packages is prohibitive, so my family gets cards with gift cards enclosed. I might send one small package, but I cannot afford more. I quit sending gifts a couple of years ago when it cost me double to send the Easter gifts as it cost to buy them. Screw that!Ugh. I'm picking out Christmas gifts right now, and as usual, I just can't decide. Part of my problem is that I have a specific budget which leads me to search for the best possible deals all day.![]()
At this stage of life, Hombre and I and those we love have everything we need and most of what we want and buying gifts for special occasions is pretty much a semi-stressful obligation of buying 'stuff' that nobody needs or particularly wants. So those gift certificates are the way to ensure that you can give a gift that will result in the person being able to get themselves something they really like and can use. I love getting them. And am more and more less reluctant to give them.
