As the end of last year drew near, I became anxious because of the approaching Christmas season. Every year, my husband and I share the shopping responsibility. He buys gifts for his side of the family, and I for mine. However, this year was going to be different. He was going to buy for the males in the family and I was going to buy for the females. I was 8 months pregnant with our second child and was struggling to make it to the stores with all of the hustle and bustle. So, I made the decision to do all of my shopping on line. I had to keep to a budget of $25.00 per person, because as soon as our baby was born, I would be on an unpaid maternity leave for 8 weeks. So, the search began. I needed to find the perfect gift for each person. Because of the price limit, the gift had to be personal and meaningful (and look like I spent more than $25.00-ha ha ha). After a few failed searches on the web, I came across this AMAZING site-Bagettes.com. This was perfect! I had time to get together some favorite pictures, and away I went shopping. I ended up purchasing 4 small cosmetic bags: one with a picture of my brother and sister-in-laws pride and joy Weimaraner, one with a picture of my 2 year old nephew dressed as a pirate, one with pictures of my niece and nephew (then and now photos) and one with my 3 nephews for my other sister in law. Then I bought 6 personalized name bags and filled them with little goodies. I felt so relieved that my shopping was done. With spending less than $200.00, I got 10 Christmas gifts done all at once. The most rewarding part, was the true heartfelt thanks from each individual. To me, their responses were PRICELESS. Thank you bagettes for a wonderful product that my family and friends will truly use throughout the year. TR Olmsted Falls, OH
