I don’t know about you, but I am so tired of being stuck inside. It’s really having an effect on my mental health. Not to the point where I need to seek out someone to talk to. I’m just saying that I’m bored out of my mind and I miss being able to do simple things like go to the store or visit with friends. Because I’m considered “high risk” due to diabetes, and a wonky immune system, I’ve been stuck at home since March 12, 2020. That is a long time. I a long, long, long time.
I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am just to get the mail (no exaggeration). Most of the time it’s nothing but a bill or junk mail, but I keep hoping I’ll get something special in the mail. Sadly, I didn’t even get any birthday cards for my birthday that recently past (end of May). Sigh…
I personally enjoy doing nice things for others, especially surprising people when they least expect it. It could be a smiley face balloon that I attach to my neighbor’s door, to a box of chocolates I leave for the man who cleans our building. I honestly enjoy doing things that make people smile.
Another thing I enjoy doing is sending gift baskets to my family and friends who live far away. I absolutely LOVE getting texts, emails, phones calls or messages from them telling me how surprised they were by my unexpected gift. I think their messages of appreciation makes me just as happy as I made them. To me, that is a “win-win” situation.
I recently received a gift basket for myself. Now I know what my family and friend’s feel like when I send them one.
I was sent to review a gift basket from Jet Gift Baskets. Jet Gift Baskets carries gift baskets for every occasion you can think of from birthday to “thank you,” and from sympathy to holiday related.
Looking for a gift basket could be a bit overwhelming, but the Jet Gift Basket site gives you so many different ways to find the perfect gift basket. You can shop by occasion, recipient or shop by price. They have options from under $30 to over $120+. They have the perfect gift for any one and for any budget.
When I used to think about gift baskets, I always thought about baskets of fruits and maybe a few cookies or crackers tossed in. That is not the case at all. There are a wide variety of gift basket contents, and Jet Gift Baskets have plenty to choose from. They have beer gift baskets, candy gift baskets, Kosher gift baskets, and vegan gift baskets, to name a few.
Jet Gift Baskets even has gift baskets for kids, like their Tough Truck Gift Basket pictured above. How cute!
They also have gift baskets for dogs and cats! I would love to send my cats a gift basket (we have six cats, so of course they would have to share it).
I was sent to review the brand’s Godiva Milk Chocolate Expressions gift basket. I LOVE chocolate. I eat a piece of chocolate every day. I think my blood is made out of chocolate. Ha Ha.
This gift basket sells for $59.99 on their website (Godiva chocolate, as you probably know, is expensive to begin with).
The gift basket arrived in perfect condition. Everything was so nicely packaged. The contents came in a thick, gold colored cardboard box, sealed in cellophane and topped off with a gold bow.
It was packaged so well that nothing got displaced during shipping. It was a lovely presentation.
Inside the gift basket contained the following yummy goodies.
- Godiva Chocolate Almonds
- Godiva Chocolate Cashews
- Godiva Chocolate Truffles
- Godiva Creme Brûlée Truffles
- Godiva Dark Chocolate Bar
- Godiva Milk Chocolate Bar
- Godiva Signature Biscuits
Mmm… I’m drooling just remembering all those sweet treats I had (they are long gone).
The chocolates were all fresh and in great shape. Nothing was melted or messed up/crushed. Although being warmer weather now, I would recommend that you NOT order chocolate products, for obvious reasons. Thankfully mine arrived long before the hot weather kicked in.
Even our cats enjoyed the box the goodies came in. If you have cats you know how they love boxes of all different shapes and sizes, even ones they really can’t fit into (I love seeing cats squeeze into little boxes – LOL).
Here is our cat Loca enjoying the gift box (our cat Emma is behind her).
If you are looking to send some smiles across the miles, or send a gift for a special occasion, you might want to check out Jet Gift Baskets at JetGiftBaskets.com.
The brand can also be found on social media. Their links are not on their site, but if you search for them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, you can find them.
Don’t forget Father’s Day is coming up. Jet Gift Baskets has great gift ideas just for that special man in your life.
