Extreme couponing gift baskets from the stockpile!

http://harperacademy.com/frugal-living/
Some Christmas gift basket ideas!
Shout outs - youngextremecouponer, savingwithvetta, pinchingpennies2011!
These are themed baskets: A gift basket for her, a food gift basket, and a gift basket of household items. Also, for gifts that will get mailed, there is a US Priority Flat Rate Small box that has been filled with hand/nail items; there is also an envelope of razors with an iTunes gift card. Essentially, this was all free; what I paid for the food gift basket, I made up for with overage from the other gift baskets. Sweet!

These are such great Ideas! I love the hand care box, I too have no family close so I have to ship everything , will def. be using these ideas this Christmas :)

@HeatherLakin Thanks for the kind words! Yeah, when you have to ship the gift, it takes on an entirely different tone, doesn't it? I think I'll be shipping a few of the pillow/throw sets; they, too, are VERY lightweight. Thanks for stopping by!

Could you make a teacher one that was what I was looking for and I can't seem to fin one.

@TheCoffeeNook You're welcome! And YOUR gift basket sounds like it is fantastic. Yes, of course you are justified in spending a little more. :)

@TheCoffeeNook ~~I figured since it was for dad it was okay to spend a little more! Once it was filled up it looks like such a expensive gift. Also a tip that someone might like is I found a wire waste basket at a thrift store for 1.00 and I filled it with cleaning supplies. :) Thanks for the wonderful ideas that helped me get started on my baskets :)

@extremecouponexposed ~~Oh yes I definitely LOVE coffee LOL :) Coffee is the gateway to open up communications! I put together a gift basket for my dad. I did spend a little bit on what I used for a gift basket, a tool carrier from home depot for 9.99. I filled the open inside area with goodies like razors, candy, lotion ect and the pockets I filled with things like deodorant, chapstick, flashlight ect. continued below
