We at GGAB have a very serious mission. That is, to educate citizens of all gender, size, age, wallet size and rank to become better gift givers. Here is our very selective gift guide for the holiday season of 2010. Bring your gift giving up to new standards.
2. The Gift Giving Advisory Board
(it’s ok to call us GGAB for short)
We at GGAB have a very serious mission. That is, to educate citizens of all gender,
size, age, wallet size and rank to become better gift givers; to ban the practice of re-
gifting as all gifts hereupon received will be appreciated and cherished; to make the
Bad Gift Emporium devoid of all relevance and usefulness. Yes!
Our expert advisory board members include the women of WickedlyChic.com,
TheGiftInsider.com and TheSucculentWife.com. We KNOW gifts. And so, in this
sponsored gift guide, we have pooled our know-how to bring you this very selective
guide of some of the most beautiful, meaningful gift ideas around. The businesses
that were invited to join have in common the unique vision and passion of their
founders, designers and creators.
Take a look-see and let us know what you will be getting from this list.
