It used to be – back in the “olden days” before the internet, that those living in rural areas did all their holiday shopping either by mail order, by phone, or by a long day’s trip to the nearest urban area or shopping center. Some people love these trips to shopping malls. The more crowds and traffic and waiting in line they do, the more they like it. Not me.

For the past 10 years or so I’ve done nearly all my holiday shopping while sitting right here in my computer chair. I have a better chance of finding true “sale” events online than I do by trying to hit 10 stores, sometimes I get free shipping, and quite often there are membership options on web sites that increase my savings further. Here is a good example…

This “Pate and Crocks” Gift Basket is offered by Touch of Europe.

I find out from the web site that it comes in 3 versions: Basic, Standard, and Luxury…

Contents of the basic version:
~ Small Crock
~ SVP Spreader
~ Henaff French Pate

Standard version contains:
~ 3 different Henaff Pates
~ Crock (ceramic)
~ RSVP Spreader
~ Presented in a basket

The luxury version contains:
~ one additional pate
~ Napkins
~ a package of Albatros mini toasts

I also find out that I can get 5 – 10% off FOR LIFE at Touch of Europe via their Membership Rewards program. Since I have a fair amount of shopping to do, this could mean some very nice savings – in addition to what I’ll be saving on a tank of gas or two.

Here’s “Coming Up Roses” – another of the nearly 100 gourmet gift basket choices from Touch of Europe.

The basket is full of Rose-flavored French gourmet products and yes, you can easily place an order and select different shipping addresses from the Touch of Europe web site…gift giving made painless!

And of course this “Rose” oriented basket did catch my immediate attention!

~ A tin of Abbaye de Flavigny anise candy, with Rose Flower
~ A Jar of Rose Petal jam,
~ French Lychee Rose Hand Cream
~ French Rose Shea Butter soap
~ French Lychee Rose Liquid Soap
~ Lychee Rose Eau de Toilette
~ Rose Petal Confit
~ Rose Petal Syrup
~ Pink Biscuits from Reims in a lovely tin (Great with Champagne)
~ Terre Exotique Rose Petals (for food use)
~ Castelbel Rose Candle in Jar

I could shop for months and never be able to re-create a gourmet gift basket like this to send to friends or family. Fortunately, I don’t have to. Thanks to Touch of Europe – neither do you!
