Oprah does "My Favorite Things" giveaways and this year for Christmas I am going to do "Maria's Favorite Things" for Christmas gifts for my co-workers. Of course, there will not be 1000's of dollars involved but I thought it was a neat idea.
I have set an $8 limit for each person. I have 2 ladies to buy for. Below is what I have so far.
Soapsoft Spa Radiant Exfoliating body wash (I love love this stuff) - FREE
Shower Gel Scrubbie - .50
Fingernail File - 4 Sided with 6 Different Textures for your nails - $1.00
Kitchen Magnetic Note Pad - Can't live without these .50
BBW Lotion - FREE with purchase
Chap Stick - FREE
I have spent $2.00 so far on each lady. From now until Christmas I am going to use items that I love and that I can get for FREE or almost FREE from CVS, Walgreens, etc to fill up their basket.
Don't forget the way you present a gift is important. I plan on using a basket with a Christmas ribbon that I already have and maybe use a Christmas dish towel as a basket liner.

i love giving CVS baskets for presents! :)
What a cute idea. I was thinking of useing totes I bought for 1.50 each and filling them with items for my aunts I have 5 so it normally can get expensive. I hadn't thought of makeing baskets though.
Great idea don't forget to use your coupons at Walmart for free trial sized items as well.
