Yes, This Is A Shameless Plug: Stop Sending The Same Old Crap As Gifts!

Tired of sending the same old crap for birthdays, anniversaries, Valentines Day or yes, funerals? Well there is a company out there that specializes in very unique gifts that are perfect for any occasion from happy birthday, new baby, sympathy, business events or just because. Edible Arrangements is a concept that is growing quickly across the US, Canada, Puerto Rico and United Kingdom as more locations are being launched. Yes, this is a product endorsement on my part. Almost a year ago, my Dad died and someone sent us one of these arrangements. And it really made an impact!

Each delicious arrangement is filled with fresh strawberries, pineapple, oranges, grapes, cantaloupe and honeydew and can be customized to suit the occasion and need. You can also choose an arrangement with fruit dipped in gourmet chocolate. With the new trend in low cal and low fat - all ingredients are natural and no preservatives or sweeteners are used. You can even customize your order with a jar of all natural fudge and a special occasion mylar balloon. Definitely fitting for any palate.

The Edible Arrangements concept was launched in East Haven, Connecticut in 1999 and began franchising in 2001. They started in Massachusetts with additional stores quickly following in Connecticut, Georgia and New Jersey. Edible Arrangements is currently growing internationally, with stores throughout United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and United Kingdom. It is one of the top growing franchise opportunities today. And I'll tell you this...it is definitely unique and tasty.

To make gift buying even easier, customers can order a fruit basket by calling, visiting a store location or ordering online www.ediblearrangements.com. The arrangement is then gift wrapped and delivered right to the location. No worries, no fuss and no time wasted.

My advice? Pick out the fruit you like and give it to the babe in your life. Tell her you love her (remember, we're trying to score points here). Then sit down in front of the fireplace and eat the dang arrangement. Nothing says love more than a devoured bouquet of fruit!
