The holiday season is coming up, and that special someone in your life deserves something adora-BURR-le. You don’t need to buy them designer to show your love. In fact, one trip to the dollar store is all that is needed.
Do you know their favorite candy? Great, you’re already right on track. The perfect burr basket should include items like these: something yummy, something cute, something to keep them warm and something personal to them. Oh, and of course, the basket and a loving card. Something yummy can be their favorite snack or a treat to make together. Something cute can be a stuffed animal. Something to keep them warm can be a blanket, fuzzy socks or a sweater. Something personal can be anything you know they’re interested in or maybe a funny inside joke. Be creative. It shows you listen and care.
Buying gifts while on a teenager’s salary can be difficult. Burr baskets don’t have to be expensive to be thoughtful. Run to your local dollar store or Walmart. Of course, you can amp it up if you want. Whatever budget works for you. “A gift doesn’t have to be expensive to be thoughtful,” one junior said.
