Please help me with gift basket themes for families/couples with grown children?

I need some new ideas for gift baskets, I've done the picnic theme and the movie at home theme. I don't want to do anything naughty or riske'. Please offer some fresh ideas. 3 points to the best one!

Please help me with gift basket themes for families/couples with grown children?
I have done a spaghetti night basket that was very cute! Put in pasta, jars of sauce, breadsticks,maybe a bottle of wine, checkered tablecloth,parmesan cheese, etc. I have also done a breakfast theme. Waffle mix, assorted syrups, bacon, sausage, orange juice, maybe some cute plates, an omellette pan,whatever you think is appropriate, or non-perishable if needed. Another idea (depending on the person) I have also done a computer fun basket. Put in paper, maybe some colored papers, or cardstock, some blank cd's, dvd's, compressed air or wipes for cleaning, ink (or a gift certificate to Staples, or wherever- so they can buy it themselves if you don't know what kind). Just let your imagination run wild, think about things you use all the time, that is what makes the best gift baskets!!
Reply:Or even Movie theme w/ Killer Oriville Redenbocker popcorn some slippers 4 ev1. Have fun w/ it! Even toss in a candle that smell's good.
Reply:You could do a game night theme. Have some dice, some cards, maybe a notebook to keep score, a small card game (Uno, Rook, Phase 10), maybe even a board game, if you have a big enough basket!
Reply:It is all about movie night. I made a basket for some friends of ours that have grown children. I got them popcorn, candy, root beer with a nice ice cream scooper, 3d glasses and a gift card to Blockbuster. It was a hit! Good luck baskets are a great gift but hard to fill.
Reply:A unique gift basket idea you can use is a Family Night Game basket. Fill it with board games like Bingo, Scattergores, Uno, etc.





Or a Blockbuster theme, fill it with rentals on games, movies, popcorn, and candy.





Or a musical theme, with CDs, tapes, iTunes gift cards..





Or a New Years basket, fill it with horns, whistles, party hats, tickets, etc.





Or a Fantastic 4 basket, fill it with triva games, a costume, mask, the DVD, etc.





Good luck!





I really like your movie theme basket! Good luck!
