New Gift Tips To Knock Their Socks Off

 

Below is a new tip for top occasions in your life. You are appreciated. Hope you enjoy.

 

Reconnecting With A Spouse Or Your Special Someone

The gift of your time and energy, like making time for a walk in the rain together or a giving a great back rub are gifts straight from the heart, and sure to win you big appreciation.
 

Company Gift-Giving
 
Consider food. About half of those surveyed in a recent American Express corporate gift-giving survey give food-related gifts. Be creative about the food if you can. If you're from Wisconsin, send some sausage and cheese. New England dwellers might like to send lobster to midwesterners.  
 
 
For A Wedding
 
When you buy from the couple's registry, they are guaranteed to like it ( as registries are a polite way of saying "Get us this".) If you'd like to be creative and you think they will appreciate something "outside the box" ( off the registry)...then go for it! Just make sure that the gift isn't too similar to something they may have on their registry. The advantage is that they will always remember which gift was from you. 

 
 
What To Bring To A Baby Shower      
 
Practical gifts are often the most useful for new parents. Things like soaps, shampoos, onesies, pajamas, toys, etc, and a little something for mom, like bubble bath or slippers goes over wonderfully. Handmade and personal gifts are also especially meaningful, such as a knitted cap or personalized blanket. If you're unable to give a handmade or personal gift but would still like to add a personalized touch, enclose a handwritten note with your gift.

I understand that saving time and money right now is very important. Here are some savvy secrets.

 

                                            Secrets To Slash Your Bills

 

Cut the average water bill by nearly 40% each year by watering outdoor plants in the morning and turning off the tap while brushing teeth or shaving. Source: A 2003 study prepared for the National Rural Water Association

 
 
Did you know you can slash the length left on your mortgage nearly in half?
That's right! That's not a typo. =) On the first of the year every year, make an extra mortgage payment to the principal only & the time left on your mortgage will be cut nearly in half. Talk with your loan officer or financial advisor to check for a pre-payment penalty and for more information. Source: Washington Mutual Mortgage Loan Department
