San Antonio Gift Basket Ideas

[spurschick]

I want to put together a gift basket for someone who just moved here to San Antonio. Anybody got some good ideas?

You can throw in some gc's to local restaurants and tix to a Starz game and a dildo

[I. Hustle]

oops I meant a Spurs shirt. I mixed up forums

[ORION]

Load it up with Birth control products.

A pair of Spurs tickets, a couple of cold packs, one of those little hand-held fans and a big can of bug spray.

Online mapping is great, but one of those fold-up laminated street maps to keep in the car can be very helpful.

They have that "Taste of San Antonio" coffee at HEB, that might be nice? We always send that to my aunt who is living in South Carolina right now...and she loves it.

Perhaps a book about the history of San Antonio?

My MIL is crazy about that stuff. She lives in Colorado and comes down to visit family about once a year - and every time she leaves she takes enough of it with her to last until the next visit.

Shoot, I've been here 5 years and I haven't experienced any of those!!

[I. Hustle]

I believe Cool Crest is gone

well then that makes the course that much more exciting

[ploto]

Tickets to local attractions would be nice, such as the zoo, a museum, or Natural Bridge Caverns. If you want to splurge, a show at the Majestic Theatre or the Symphony would be even nicer.

A Green Card

[MoSpur]

Rolandos Tacos Gift Card, Chris Madrid's Gift Card or Longhorn Cafe. Passes to ride those boats on the Riverwalk. Tickets to Sea World or Fiesta TX. Gift card to Rudy's Bar B Q.

[clambake]

a rope, razor blades, a bottle of sleeping pills, directions to the roof of san antonios tallest building, a revolver.......

[jack sommerset]

No food. The people in that town are to fat already. Be a good neighbor and put baskets together with diet and exercise tips. Not just for the new person but everyone.

What about a gift certificate to Taco Cabana, a San Antonio original?

I threw up at Tip Top when I was 5...worst tarter sauce ever.

store called ON MAIN. been around a long time and I've used them for gift baskets with rave reviews in the past.

Tell them I sent you and they will hook you up.

:tu

They moved the store just off of Main, actually but the name is the same. There are tons of Texas-themed books and gifts that I haven't found anywhere else, and they buy stuff from local artists and jewelers to sell there as well. The peeps who work there are awesome and super friendly.

:lol I was just in there today buying a Halloween card. I've always loved that store.

I was thinking of going to Mi Tierra for some local goodies, maybe pick up some Texas wine from Central Market and I'm hoping to get a few items from the CVB. I might also pick up a San Antonio mug from Starbucks.

Thanks to all for the ideas!
