The Internet offers so many options for gift buying. One option that is becoming increasingly popular is custom designed online gift baskets. With so many products available to purchase, however, how do you decide what to place in your online gift basket? You need to consider several questions about the intended receiver of the gift basket.
* What is the occasion? Is the online gift basket for a birthday, anniversary, Christmas present, or job promotion? Is it to express your appreciation, or is it to express sympathy for an illness or death?
* What kind of hobbies does the person enjoy?
* What kind of foods does he or she prefer?
* What age is the person?
