Anybody have a recommendation for a place to get a nice gift basket locally? Not ridiculously expensive, but not too cheapy either. Thanks! |

Trader Joe's in Florham Park sells gift basket kits, or at least did during the holidays. Buy a basket, buy a kit with cellophane, paper fluff, bow, etc, and buy lots of goodies to put in it (all available at Trader Joes). My three-year-old and I did this and put together a nice gift basket for our nanny at a very reasonable price (and believe me I am not an artsy person!) |

I'm pretty sure that there's a store that only does gift baskets in Livingston. Its in the same strip mall Walgreen's is in. |

I think that Joyce, the woman who sells coffee every morning in Maplewood Train Station, was trying to start a gift basket business a few months back. Maybe you can stop by to see her one morning to find out more. |

We go to Whole Foods. They obviously have great food and after the selections are made the folks at the front desk assemble it into a lovely basket. |

If you need something less expensive, try Costco. They usually have a seasonal assortment. |
