Save 3 Hours on Holiday Shopping
Step One: Don’t drive to the mall – saves 1 hour or more when you take into account the trip to the mall and the hunt for a parking space!
Step Two: Don’t aimlessly wander the stores hoping inspiration will strike for that hard to shop for person on your list – saves at least an hour, because we all know hard to shop for people are hard to shop for for a reason!
Step Three: Don’t wait in line – I spent twenty minutes in line at a retail store the other day, and it’s not even the busy holiday season yet! (Should have taken my own advice)
Step Four: Don’t mail your gift yourself – saves atleast an hour because you won’t have the right size shipping box, box tape, packing paper or peanuts and then you’ll still have to drive somewhere to ship it and wait in line there.
So how do you get the gift for the hard to shop for person while keeping sane, on budget and without wasting a lot of time?
You shop at Book Bouquet gift baskets, the basket that lasts! Books make great gifts because they are personal and they are a lasting reminder of you. Plus, there is a book on every topic out there so as long as you know a little something about a person you can find a book they would be sure to enjoy.
With over ten years in business the experts at Book Bouquet can build you a custom basket saving you the time and stress of having to run around looking for everything yourself. Or, you can choose from over a hundered different gift basket designs for kids, babies, men and women!
It’s easy to shop their website with shopping by price, by occasion or by type of book. There’s even a custom gift basket shop where you can build your own basket so shopping at midnight’s just as easy as shopping during the middle of the day.
Be sure to check out www.BookBouquet.com to save yourself time and stress this holiday season, it really is that easy!

New Alternative to Flowers for Hospital Patients from Book Bouquet Creator of “Novel” Gift Baskets
For patients in hospitals and nursing homes flowers are lovely to look upon, but they do nothing to help alleviate the boredom that comes from being confined to a small space for long periods of time. Book Bouquet creator of “novel” gift baskets has developed a line of get well gifts with the needs of the patient in mind.
Boredom Buster Gift Box for Hospital Patients
One of the patient needs Book Bouquet considered when creating their get well gifts were food limitations. Many patients are on restricted diets making traditional gift baskets of gourmet foods a waste. Book Bouquet introduced a no food version of their popular Boredom Buster gift box. This gift includes four puzzle books, a pen and pencil for solving the puzzle, a get well balloon and the customer’s choice of a paperback book by favorite bestselling authors like Danielle Steel, John Grisham, Michael Connelly and many others.
Another issue is special dietary needs. Many patients can’t eat rich cookies or salty pretzels so Book Bouquet developed a “No Guilt” line of get well gifts. These gifts have healthier snacks, like all natural, fat free apple fruit chips, organic trail mix, wheat and gluten free cashew crunch just to name a few. These get well gifts offer the abundance of a traditional gift basket and no guilt from eating the goodies.
Healthy You Gift Box
Many of Book Bouquet’s get well gifts are sent to cancer patients. Knowing that chemotherapy can cause nausea a new product is being offered as a special add-on item for any get well gift basket. PsiBands are acupuncture wrist bands that alleviate nausea and come in fashionable colors and styles for men and women. Customers can add this great product to any get well gift giving them the ability to customize their gift to fit the patients needs.
Book Bouquet ships to hospitals, nursing homes, treatment centers and homes throughout the US and Canada. Get well gift orders placed by 3:00pm EST Monday through Friday ship the same day. Book Bouquet’s get well gifts offer a personal touch and put a new spin on what has been available to send for gifts to patients.

Unique Mother’s Day Gift by Moms for Moms
Moms know what Moms like so you can’t go wrong with a gift from the Savor the Success Mother’s Day Gift Basket Collection. Created by a group of women business owners these baskets are for Moms by Moms.
There are three choices: Green Goddess is an eco-friendly gift that celebrates Moms natural style with things good for Mom and good for our environment. This is our choice for Michelle Obama. Anyone want to send her one for us?
Mamma Bella recognizes Strength, Courage and Beauty all words that describe Mom. We would send this gift to Queen Elizabeth. Seriously I think she would appreciate something from the heart from Charles and Camilla.
Mommy-liscious is a gift for New Moms and includes gifts for Mom and Baby. This gift would be great for Tori Spelling. With her Mother-Daughter relationship she needs to feel mommy-liscious!

So even if your Mom isn’t a famous world leader or celebrity she’ll still love to be treated like one on Mother’s Day! Order early as they may sell out and quantities are limited!

Exciting New Books
So excited about the new Grisham book. I loved The Appeal. Even though it is fiction I found it so thought provoking, and it really had me thinking about how we are manipulated by media and politics. I hope this new Grisham is just as good.
Also new are books from Danielle Steel and J.D. Robb.
