Have you ever been invited to a baby shower but been short the cash to bring a nice gift or not been sure what to bring? Here's an idea for you.
I use a container (a box bottom wrapped in gift wrap, a basket I had around the house, a gift bag-with some weight in the bottom-a rice sock will work nicely, or even a larger plastic container mom can use again) stuff it with something (shredded paper or stuffing covered with tissue paper or wrapping paper to look nice if you don't have enough tissue or easter grass) then use straws or bamboo skewers and tape coupons on them like flags, you can twist the coupons so they wrap around the "stick," then add some other items to the basket to fill it out.
You can get samples and coupons from many places, just register yourself as the expecting parent. Parents always have to buy supplies for their babies, giving them coupons is a way to help them save money on things they'll need to purchase anyway and it gives them the option to choose the brands, sizes, colors, etc they want and need so you don't have to guess.
Places to get coupons and samples:
Enfamil, Similac, Gerber, Pampers, Huggies, Luvs, Publix, WinnDixie, Food Lion, Save A Lot
Payless Shoe stores in the past has given one pair of free baby shoes per baby away if you go in and request them.
babytobee-no need to do the other offers, babiesonline-you decide what you think is a good idea to do
Have a terrific shower!
